Hi, I am looking to contribute some symbols and footprints to the Kicad library. I have made a few symbols so far by copying what I saw in some existing libraries.
I have a few questions with regards to style and convention when adding new things to the library: * What is preferred when combining changes for committing? Smaller, granular commits, or chunky big ones? * Is there any sort of review process, or should I commit right into the main tree? Or may be branch of my own and then merge that? Or commit into a subdirectory like "contrib_symbols...."? * Is there any sort of style guideline? And if not, if I started a blueprint, would that be helpful? * I hear a lot of murmuring about changes in Kicad, such as s-expressions and SWEET. Is there anything I can do to help or be prepared? * I can't install Wings3D on 64-bit Ubuntu by either apt-get or from the Wing3D binary. Does anyone have it working on this type of system, or do I need to go and build from source? I know this is a lot of questioning, but I'm interested in being as helpful as I can in the time I have available.
