Re: Introducing myself

 

Hi Tarjei,

Welcome to the community! It is always great to see new people coming to
KiCad.

Do not hesitate to ask if you have any questions about the code. I also
invite you to join #kicad at freenode.net, it is a great place for KiCad
discussions, not only related to the development.

Regards,
Orson
