Karl, This is misleading, yes. Brian is working on a non-public codebase that he maintains, and he informs the main KiCad developers list with snippets of what he has done. Everything Brian is working on is currently unavailable as it is not currently in the KiCad development branch. As Dick has pointed out, Copper and Component were changed quite a while ago to be Front and Back instead which are more reasonable layer names. Best Regards, Brian. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
