Why did you choose this package when a 28 pin DIP and a TQFP seems to be an option. I had a look at the guidelines at http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc3641.pdf and it looks similar to ball grid array packages. Sorry I can't help with a footprint, I would try a package that is easier to work with if possible.
