Dear KiCad developers,

our company Dorabot is an enthusiastic KiCad user,
so we would like to *sponsor *some improvements:

*1. Schematic design part*
a. provide off-page connection for a parallel bus.
b. provide customized power ports that can be edited by netlabel in case
there are several power rails.
c. provide a convenient way to duplicate circuitry partially from another
project.
d. provide a convenient way to combine two different schematic-libs.
e. provide a way to import schematic designs from other popular EDA tools,
such as Altium Designer or Orcad.

*2. PCB layout part*
a. provide teardrop connection methods, including mass and individual way.
b. provide a method to mass align REF numbers.
c. provide a method to mass edit the size of REF numbers.
d. provide a method to move multiple components in *PCB* when selected in
the schematic.
e. provide a method to add arc traces.
f.  provide a method to add polygons with arc corners.
g. have a specified rule to constrain the clearance between the edge and
polygons or traces locally (not only globally).
h. provide a way to import PCB designs from other popular EDA tools, such
as Altium Designer or Allegro.
i.  provide a convenient way to fanout BGA footprints with certain VIA size
and Trace width.
j.  provide region constraint for small pitch size BGA footprint.

Please let us know whether you see an opportunity for us to *sponsor* (i.e.
financially support)
some or all of these improvements. We are looking forward to hearing from
you!

Best regards,

*Wolf Schaarschmidt*｜Robot Engineer
