I think we're still in the "what do we want to do" phase :-) Some time this weekend, I'll re-read the thread and see which ideas we seem to have come to a consensus on, and see what if any parts of the "plan" can already be done. Then we can start talking about how to get the rest done. For example, I think we all like the idea of a heavy "starter" library, that's known to at least produce usable results with minimal effort. However, the proponents of that idea can already do this with no dependencies on software changes - just upload it to gedasymbols. I might do one myself. But we also seem to be converging an a need for multiple library management, including non-local libraries, which will require some nontrivial coding effort in many of the tools, so we shouldn't suggest starting on that just yet. I don't think we've come to a consensus on how to ease the heavyification step yet, though, which may require a great deal of coding and redesign. If we have come to a consensus on "what do we want to do" the next step would be to figure out the coding needed and get people to start on prototypes. Perhaps we'll end up with the horrible problem of having to choose between two excellent implementations :-) _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
