[Carl Poirier <carl.poirier.2@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Simon,

I contributed your SMD footprint as well as a renamed most parts of the
same library to comply to the convention. If you want to contribute more,
there is a lot to do. First is moving all the resistor (0603 and such)
footprints to Resistors_SMD.pretty, and remove the duplicates. Content must
be looked at, and not only name. They also have to be renamed properly.

Please tell me if you wish to give a hand,

Carl
