Re: [PATCH] V5 upgrade documentation
Does this mean that we will be able to put the github macros back into
the adoc file?
I also checked the latest doc build and I did not see the version
upgrade section in the kicad documentation as if the include statement
failed. Any ideas or am I missing something?
