It does not make the circuit board free. *sigh*. there are variants available if you look. there's even a GPL'd KiCAD repository available with an early design. KiCAD turned out to be a waste of time so i was forced to use proprietary software as it contains the necessary design rules verification for inexperienced PCB design engineers to do a decent job. the files are huge, i can't maintain git revision control on them properly, and i'm annoyed about it. apologies paul - i'm tired, i'm massively stretched, i'm reaching a threshold on what i can cope with, so i'm winding down answers so i can conserve energy to get the hundreds of tasks needed to be completed prepared and up and running. if you or anybody else would like to help with that, i am more than happy to give them all the access to whatever they want so it can get done. l. _______________________________________________ Dev mailing list Dev@lists.parabola.nu https://lists.parabola.nu/mailman/listinfo/dev
