I forgot:
11. Line width is 0.15 mm also for value and reference (because it's on
silkscreen).
12. Text size 1 mm (or more? smaller looks bad).
Maybe not all these rules should be in KLC, but I think that some of
them are important (eg setting proper attributes).

Library convention doesn't inform how Footprint Properties should be
filled. I think it would be good to add some rules to avoid mess.
My proposition is:
1. Doc
Some information that will allow to identify footprint should be
provided, eg manufacturer, manufacturers name, datasheet file name.
Link to datasheet is not enough because it can be broken in future.
2. Keywords
Don't use misleading Keywords. Keywords separated with space
character.
3. Reference
Reference should be default (the same as footprint name).
4. Value
Default: VAL**
5. Attributes
Follow recommendations from user manual.
6. Move and Place
Default: Free.
7. Auto Place
0 and 0 (recommendation from user manual).
8. Local Clearance Values
Default: 0 (if there is no reason to change it).
9. 3D Shape Names
Relative path with KISYS3DMOD set to ...
/kicad-library/modules/packages3d, path is:
LIBRARY_NAME/FOOTPRINT_NAME.wrl
What do you think about it?
