Well, developers of geda and/or pcb, those with write access to the
source, tend to ignore patches on the mailing list.
And my own question to add: is there a way to shrink all solder paste
openings, say, 5%?
I use a perl script to build a paste.pcb out of the working pcb,
which has objects on a copper layer that correspond to the calculated
paste openings from the original. That way, the perl script can

Ok. So layer would have object and object has a property if it is
positive or negative. Negative from nothing will endup being nothing.
Positive in positive will endup in positive.
You can't have both positive and negative drawing objects in a single
layer without prioritizing them, and once
At least patches can be more easily retrieved on the trackers.

FIRST thing I do is go through the patches in the tracker and apply
whatever I can.

Hi,
another set of questions needed to be answered before I can start
any real work. Or better a set of thought how to do it.
Current state:
One physicaly connected surface is called layer group.
What is called layer is something that one can work on
and will end up in some surface layer group.
