Hi Oliver and Wayne,

I am thinking the "offset" should be written in footprint (and board) files *only* if it is not 0,0,0

With this patch, all footprint files will be incompatible with stable version, due to a not used
(most of time) parameter.
Moreover footprint files have no version identification.
