Re: Stable release 4.0.7

 

Oliver,

I'm guessing that the 3D model file names have also changed so using the
older footprints with the new 3D models is going to be an issue.  I'm
tempted to keep the 4.0.6 tagged libraries so users existing symbol and
3D model libraries don't change and break user's designs.  I am open to
suggestion if someone has a better idea.  I don't want this to be a huge
effort that pushes the 4.0.7 stable release back more than a week.

Cheers,

Wayne
