Subject:[pcb-rnd] new: web switchover from fp to lihata
Hi all,
 
we have a web service, since 2015, that lets the user explore the small 
default footprint library we ship with pcb-rnd (called pcblib):
 
http://igor2.repo.hu/cgi-bin/pcblib-param.cgi
 
and
 
http://igor2.repo.hu/cgi-bin/pcblib-static.cgi
 
Back in 2015 it all started with geda/pcb's fp format. Later on we 
switched to our new native file format, lihata subcircuit. Recently we 
have finally switched over the files in pcblib from fp to lihata.
 
Today I managed to switch over the above web services too. This means we 
got rid of the legacy fp format files from our default distributon and web 
pages. Although it won't change anyone's daily routine, this is still a 
milestone.
 
Note: this does not mean we would remove support for the fp file format. 
It only means our own footprints are coming in our own native file format, 
not in some alien format, both in the distribution and in associated 
material (e.g. web page).
 
Best regards,
 
Igor2
