Jean-Pierre,

Could you help me find pins/wires that are not connected due to rounding
errors? I did my best, but I cannot find anything neither by looking at
the files saved in KiCad format nor in ERC reports.

I noticed only missing junction marks on some of the T-shaped wire
connections, but they are missing in the original Eagle files, so I
assume it is fine.

There is a minor bug that causes small squares on pins (as if they were
not connected), but as soon you move a single component, they all
disappear. This should be investigated, but it is not a rounding problem.

Regards,
Orson
