[hpsdr] Kicad library?

[Christopher T. Day]

One can put anything into SVN. I think that is a great place for them.
If I ever get anything useful done, it would be nice to have commit
privileges, though. My request has gone unanswered so far.

I think this is a great idea.  Can we commit our libraries to SVN?   I
have a library I have been adding to as time goes on.

I am committed to trying to use Kicad.  The Atlas was done in PADS
because I was having some trouble at the time with PCBNEW.  I am also
finding that I also need to maintain my own build of Kicad to correct
some annoyances.  I want to redo the Atlas schematic and board in
Kicad.
