Carl,

It was exciting to see work on the github footprints, Pin_Headers, and the 
Socket_Strips.


Thanks.


Noticed that the pin numbering was different from Pin_Array numbering.  Was that
intentional or accidental?   If memory serves me, I think I've used the 
Pin_Array
numbering more than the numbering in your recent commit.


On a related topic, but not pertinent to your work, "To the wishlist":

I have had to move Pin_Header footprints from one side of the board to the 
other, without
changing or flipping the pin numbering.  This is not like a typical through hole
footprint, where you do want to flip the pin numbering.   Instead I guess we 
need a
footprint mirroring.

In the case of headers, it is common to want to put the part on the other side 
but not
flip the pin numbering.  I could not find a way to do this.  Mostly it pertains 
to the the
assembler person, since the footprint looks the same on both sides of the 
board.  But the
supporting documentation needed to tell the assembler to put the header on the 
other side
would be made easier with an option to mirror header footprints.
