OK (I haven't carefully checked the dimensions though...)

I was talking about having a look at the solder area under the normal
pads (not the thermal pad) which seems a bit small for me, but perhaps
it is OK.

You can leave the bigger thermal pad, it won't hurt though it isn't
absolutely necessary (the board does not dissipate a lot...) unless
someone connects some extension that sucks a lot of power of course :)

OK

OK

OK, current capacitor placement seems good to me.

Please remove the text "U6" from the PCB footprint, it does not belong
there.

OK, just double check that Altium is using the updated PCB footprint
from the library everywhere. By the way, I can't recompile
MilkymistOne.LibPkg, and MilkymistOne.SchLib does not match the
schematics (see the USB connector for example). It seems you have
changed the schematics symbols through another means than
MilkymistOne.SchLib and forgot to update the library. Please fix this.

Nice catch!

Thanks,
