Hi! :)
I have kept thinking about the new python API, I still don’t consider it
ready,
and I believe it could make sense to have them separate from tree,
with stable releases tracking the Kicad stable releases, and a development
branch.
This way, we can use the plain C++ python API in-tree to do CI over KiCad,
and have a separate package for python the python API SDK, or have the
building tools installing the python modules along. (If we also distribute via
pip
it could be something as simple as calling “pip install kicad-python”)
Thoughts?
For stable version tracking, do we have already a name, version numbering, or
something equivalent for the soon-to-be stable release, and the next one?
Best,
Miguel Ángel Ajo
