Hello Inkscape devs.
In the past I've mentioned PCBmodE, an open source circuit design software I've written that uses Inkscape as its GUI (sort of). More here:
https://bitbucket.org/boldport/pcbmode
A few days ago I've released my first official product that includes a board I've made with PCBmodE (and Inkscape!)
http://boldport.tictail.com/product/the-tiny-engineer-superhero-emergency-ki... http://boldport.com/boards/emergency/index.html
I'll be donating 50p to the Inkscape Fund for each unit from the first batch of 300 that sells. Inkscape has been an integral part of creating this product (PCB and print design), and I'd like to give back to you developers for the great work and effort you've been putting into this software!
I'm writing this to you in the hope that you'd be interested in this story (and perhaps PCBmodE and product) but mainly to hear feedback.
All the best, saar.
Nice work saar!
I like the idea of reusing the connector routing for traces. You might like to check whether there are any new features in libavoid that could be exposed for PCBmodE.
A proper netlist structure would be useful for other applications too, I can see a lot of benefit to inkscape from this work.
regards, njh
