Thank you for contributing!  The EPC system seems fairly widespread, so
it would be useful to have them.  I would be happy to add them to the
Dia distribution, there's but a few things that would need to be done
before they can be added -- if you do them, it'll speed up the process:

There should be a sheet containing all the symbols (in .sheet.in format)
with names and in particular descriptions -- I figure you can describe
them more concisely than me.

The "subprocess" shape resizes in a weird way -- shouldn't it just have
a thick border rather than a border that changes width with resizing?

The xor shape icon has an X in it, but the shape itself does not.  Won't
that be confusing?

The shapes would benefit from having a connectionpoint in the middle
with the "main" attribute set to "yes" (see examples in current CVS) --
it makes it a lot easier for the users in the upcoming version.

It would be most practical if you can fix these things, lest I forget
about it and not get it into the next release.

Thanks,
-Lars
