Re: Pcbnew file format
Hi Seth,
We could; all this stuff is from 5.1.
However, the file format has already changed, and it will change again for Jon’s changes. So I don’t think it makes any material difference if we integrate this stuff, and it does clean up loose ends which I hate leaving lying around.
Cheers,
Jeff.
