ok committed and added a shout out to you. sorry for not understanding this immediatly so the new version 6.2 has support for this file format. that is good. <div>I would like to write to the author, </div><div><br></div><div>
<div>> You may use this file to implement a program that reads and/or writes files</div><div> > in the EAGLE File Format. If your program writes files in the EAGLE File</div><div> > Format, these files must be readable by EAGLE version 6.2.0</div>
<div> > without any error messages or warnings.</div><div><br></div><div>The must be readable by is a violation of the basic princlples of free software which states that the software should be usable for any reason even the wrong one. there should be no way to make such restrictions via a creative commons license.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Restrictions on the usage of an file are against the spirit of creative commons, you can make artwork from the xml and have it be invalid for example. The author is basically imposing usage restrictions here and it is not clear if they would even be covered by copyright law.... </div>
<div><br></div><div>i will choose to ignore them. thanks,</div><div><br></div><div>mike</div><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Sep 13, 2012 at 11:02 PM, Andrew Plumb <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:andrew@plumb.org" target="_blank">andrew@plumb.org</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<div style="word-wrap:break-word">Yes. Ask someone to open it up in Eagle 6 and "Save As" new files. That will automagically create them in the new text-based XML format for you to (ab)use as you see fit.<div>
