Hi Sergey, Please send this patch series to me directly, and I'll apply them. The mailing list software to have munged the patches so badly I can't go through and fix them all up manually. It might have been my mail client, but I don't think so - a resend direct to my address should identify

Hi, That sounds very useful to me, I would like to use such a library. I have experimented with some C++ code to generate footprints, by generating text file output, and there have been a couple of parts where I wanted to integrate copper areas for grounding. I ended up generate
