Hi Ed, Thank you for interest in KiCad. The approach depends on what you want to achieve, if you simply want to create a board basing on schematics exported from Scheme-it, then a netlist file should be enough. Unfortunately, I am not aware of a document describing KiCad netlist format, but it is an ASCII file, so perhaps it will not be hard to understand. Remember you will need to assign footprints using KiCad library IDs to get them in the board layout editor.
