No need to apologize. You brought a bunch of critical issues out into the daylight. > > It was a very simple question, after all. I had no idea. :) Ah, but you showed that it *isn't* a simple question. Different people have very different views of what it means to have a composite component in a design. This interacts with very different views on what a project flow should be. And truth be told, I have sympathy for most of the conflicting points of view. The problem is that which is "right" depends on the job and the customer. I am extremely unhappy with the desire for a standard one- size-fits-all gEDA approach to these issues. Even if I could design it to my liking, it would only fit a subset of my projects, and I'm only one user.
