That's fine, I understand that we have to be flexable.

Maybe we could...

Allow everyone to use there own schematic editor.
Allow everyone to upload there schematic file to jallib SVN in /
samples/schematics/

However, we must make sure each schematic file has either a bmp image,
or a quality pdf to go with it

All schematic files could have a date within there filename (or jal
version) so we know which is the most up to date. There can be only
one bmp or pdf image, containing the most up to date schematic.

At least this way, if someone really needs to modify the schematic
file, they can by downloading and installing the software. It's up to
you guys if we want to specify a "prefered" software.

Aditional images can go in the tutorials. I will make tutorials for my
projects, but need to make the drawings first.


lets move DITA conversation to a dita topic thanks.

Matt.
