I'm working on my first project with kicad, and so far liking it (although I've had to create a lot of modules by hand since, and I've been sort of annoyed by a few things).
I submitted my gerbers to batchpcb and studied the pictures they supply once the board has passed their tests. I managed to spot a problem where the module POWER-IN-JACK-PMS has pins that are completely covered up by the soldermask on the copper layer. I'm not sure what library that POWER-IN-JACK-PMS is from, but I THINK it's from one of the libraries that are bundled with Kicad. A library I downloaded contained "JACK_ALIM", which appears to also be a 2.5mm power connector, but has oval shaped holes.. and I'm not trusting that PCB places can actually drill those (or am I wrong?) Anyways yeah.. just wanted to point out that POWER-IN-JACK-PMS doesn't have it's pads on the copper side soldermask. Mike
