Agreed.  Thanks for all your effort over the years DJ.

I'd appreciate the mailing list to continue existing without anyone
needing to sign up again if that's possible.
People are still responding now so it seems worthwhile.

Other than that I'd like to see a github index page that keeps track
of the most maintained repositories of the various components,
somewhat like the old gEDA web pages used to do.  In my case this
means pcb, gerbv, and gschem.  I'm not opposed to it being inclusive
of anything anyone else thinks should go on the list.

So far as I know at the moment this means:

For pcb:    https://github.com/gEDA-pcb-developers/pcb
For gerbv:     https://github.com/gerbv/gerbv
For geda-gaf maybe:  https://github.com/rlutz/geda-gaf ?
                  or maybe:  https://launchpad.net/geda/+download
                  or ?  with gschem I'm not sure at all which is best
at this point

Does Bert's version of pcb have everything worth preserving from elsewhere?

Bert are you still around and ok with having your version
semi-official?  Obviously we're not talking about any big commitment
here at this point, just a sort of best bet at what is most likely to
build.

Which version of gschem is suggested?

Maybe this would just be my private list idk, but I still use this
software and maybe it's worth preserving some idea of how best to make
it work for someone else also.  If there are parts above that nobody
wants to speak for at all I'd like to know that as well (and I'll make
an "official" version of my own :)
