Hi everyone
@Kliment: Thanks for that information
@Rafal:
Well, I thought about how to describe, and I would had choosen another
term then multiboard, I would had prefered something like module(s) project.
The reason for that is, that multiboard is the naming for that domain in
Altium, and to start a planning from scratch, it may be a good idea to
get a little distance to what I know and use before. But this is just my
personal preference, and the term module may be already used in other
tools. So, you may name it in a way you think it's best.
Nevertheless, I would start planning from scratch with a definition of
all important and used terms to clearify what we discussing about, so
the exact naming may be less important.
I have a gitlab and a github account, just tell me where to join the
discussion.
regards
Oliver

Hi Oliver,
The subject somehow died out, but I'd like to followup:
1. I've looked up current kicad github for guidance, and it looks
pretty "overpopulated" - lots of small repositories without any sort
of "oversight". Many marked as "legacy", but still visible ... and in
consequence creating "information noise".
2. so i might have missed a place where such discussion (documentation
gathering) currently takes place - pls advice.
3. if there is none and I create one, how do I invite kicad (and other
tools) users to join the discussion?
4. is there a naming convention to use for a project, or "multiboard"
would be just fine?

Hi Rafal
Well, this seems to me exactly like what I would start with, thank you.
Where is this snippet from? I can't remember such an email thread here.
greetings
Oliver

For "multiboard projects" I think if you ask 5 people, you will
possibly get 5 different answers about what this feature means, and
what they want to do with it.
So, figuring this out (and getting it documented) is a good first
step.
If that could be of any help, and should anybody have already ideas
and/or experience regarding multiboard design in form of loose
comments or discussion, I can gather those into an initial
documentation and put it on a github somewhere.

Das Nötige ist einfach und das Komplizierte unnötig

As a german, please let me tell you: Germans are not rude.
If you invite a german to have lunch with you and he says simply
'No', be assured that he means:
«I'm so glad that you ask me to spend lunch time with you, I'm sure
it would be a great time,
but unfortunately, I'm deeply sorry for that, I have a meeting with
my boss and a few minutes later,
I promised our most important customer a call.
And moreover, I'm a little embarassed for that, I feel a bit sick
today, maybe I'm not a good lunch companion today.
But I really hope so that we can share this great time another time.»
The reason for this kind of highly efficient conversation, which is
typical for germans, is quite simple:
He knows that you are probably very busy with highly important business,
and it is a special kind of German courtesy not to want to waste your
precious time.
So please, don't misunderstand short and precise communication as
rowdyness.
