Micah,
Good luck on the "open file format"!!! Those of us who have been using
PCB CAD packages for a number of years find that this is a MAJOR
problem! There have been some attempts at opening up a 'universal'
format for packages, but these have failed as the vendors do not seem to
be intereseted in disclosing their format to competitors.
