Weird or not, only 5 (five) pins needed to be "relocated" on 18F4550 - the others, are in their natural position/order. The rest of traces are because of three reasons: - the very small dimension of the board (if you look at Arduino - Severino, which is one side, through hole comp. board, is bigger than Diecimilla or Duemilanove); - the traces had to be thicker enough for toner transfer method. (homebrew/ghetto style - and is really easy to made); - USB connector had to be in same zone as other connectors, to make room for larger shields. Counting this, and my limited experience, you must admit, I did a good job :-P I can't wait to finish the first board (18F2550) to play with it. Is so small...
