Hi folks,
I noticed there were a bunch of libraries done by the library folks that
aren't in the default kicad.pro, so I was missing out on a lot of their
good work!
Over the weekend, I added all the libraries to the default profile. If
this is something we want in the main tree, awesome.
Note,
Someone tried this before:

Oof. Guess that's what happens when you spend March in Canada.
How are users supposed to know what footprints are available in each
library? Are we expecting users to open libraries in a text editor? Should
they add each one, one by one, and then see if they have footprints they

Hi,
maybe only add a real bare set of symbols, e.g. discrete stuff (R, C, L,
Transistors, MOSFETs)?
This would be a starting point a KiCad beginner could use to play around
a bit.
If you want more, you IMHO have to dive into library management
anyway... and create your own library or at leas
Do we have any way of describing libraries so users can know the difference
between them--Which ones are only for old designs, which ones are identical
to which other ones just with different standards?
Which libraries do we want to have added by default?

This is something I'm very interested in fixing, and I think we can fix it
without a huge amount of work, but I have too much work before the stable
release to work on it now.
