A few quick test show the Eagle import has some problems, on the Developers
version.

I would  suggest you do a binary file check,  on sch/pcb files,   and warn
the user,   that Kicad only supports XML, 6.0+ instead of giving confusing
passer error messages when it finds a binary file. Example:
https://github.com/OLIMEX/OLINUXINO/tree/master/HARDWARE/RT5350F/RT5350F-
OLinuXino/RT5350F_OLinuXino_Rev_E

Others  from OLIMEX  also show up the a number of problems with text
showing when they should not, and not displaying text when they should.
Example:  Attached.   Sorry for the file size,  But I'm not sure if the
mailing list server will block compressed files.
