I want to make it clear that I do not believe that I would be able to work very much with the code - I just don't have the time - but I would try to find and give direction and help with the big picture. I looked at the proposed C++ geometry library, but I'm not at all convinced that it is such a good fit for gEDA/PCB. Starting from scratch seemed a better alternative to me than that library. Things like snapping to a grid could then be implemented efficiently right from the start, as opposed to being added on top after the fact, with benefits likely for both implementation and performance. //Peter
