Hello!

I've been pondering this and my gut feeling said "no not going towards a
layout tool again". But then I realized that gerbv has gone from a silly
gerber viewer to an actual verification tool. So I say "yayh go for it"!

Anyhow, this is the first real gerbv development since gerbv moved to
git. This calls for new and improved development flows I assume, since
git is more powerful at cooperation. I have no idea on how "the other"
geda projects handles branching, merging and pushing. Anyone can
enlighten me? I tried to look for a "how we do git gaf and/or pcb".

I have some small ideas on how to do it, but first I want to check how
others are doing it. I have not followed geda-dev and -user for a long
time. I just recently started to try to follow it again.

Best regards,
/spe
