gEDA-user: pcb: new footprints for minidin[3-8] and DIN

2008-03-29 Thread geda
Hello list, i just wrote some PCB-footprint-files for horizontal-pluged minidin[3-8] and DIN-connectors, I hope they are usefull and dont contain too much errors. www.kbdbabel.org/pcb/ Is there a chance to get those included in the official PCB-distribution? Regards, Alexander
