This site is a form of Wiki that developers have contributed definitions of different API calls.  Even has declarations for the Cards.dll.  It usually provides the VB.NET and C# declarations.

But, there is even more.  On the lower left you will see a like "Helpful Tools".  This has a  listing for a Visual Studio add-in that makes it easy to call up these declarations without ever going to the web site.  You can also contribute declarations in the same add-in.

If you ever use the Windows APIs and many COM signatures, this can really help out.

One note: At this time the site is not Mozilla FireFox friendly.  You will probably need Internet Explorer to use the site.
