Hi all,

I've had a pcb coding sabbatical for a couple of years (busy private 
life, different role and larger projects at my employer).

I'm fine with geda-pcb-developers/pcb being a semi official repo, I 
started this as a backup repo just in case.

If anyone wants pushing rights and has a github account please give me a 
shout and I send you an invitation over Github.

Kind regards,

Bert Timmerman.
