Edakrill is a sister project of pcb-rnd. It's a "gedasymbols.org clone",
with a few very important differences:
- it's not geda-centric; I automtically convert data to all formats I can,
e.g. footprints are available in lihata, tedax, geda .fp, kicad; I plan to
do the same later with symbols too
- although the backing data store is svn, which makes it somewhat similar
to gedasymbols, I am also providing web upload - so casual users uploading
small amount of data won't need to use svn
- edakrill uses rich metadata, which makes searches much better
If you have custom footprints or symbols you made and would like to
publish them, please send them to me in private or consider svn commiting
them in the edakrill svn. It would be nice if we'd have a lot of resources
readily available by the time I announce the new service - and that needs
your contribution.
