So a learning curve to get up on KiCad and, for me, an issue migrating ten
years personal library of component foot-prints.

The Eagle files are store in simple text.  If there isn't already an Eagle to
KiCad translator, I'd expect one soon.

Hi

The big gotcha in moving between these programs is porting the libraries.
Without moving them over, you have very limited options when working in
the “new” environment.

Opened up the email this evening and surprise a discount coupon from
Autodesk. Charge a lot as a “standard” price and then discount it 50%.
Somehow this reminds me a lot of the local furniture sales  .. errr.. SALES …
errr..  Yes, it’s a brave new world.
