[Vesa Solonen <vesa.solonen@xxxxxxxx>]

While working on the footprint library convention, the lack of extended
mechanical and production aid layers got in the way. Why, how and
revealing pictures in [1].

We would like to get extended layers part sorted in our draft and the
final document. To make it available for production it would need some
kind of an impelementation. The implementation is planned as one of the
CERN work packages [2] and it seems an usable implementation is already
in Lorenzo's branch [3].

The question is how to shape [3] so that it satisfies CERN work package
contents (or a part of it) and gets included in the mainline.

Best regards,
-Vesa
