	Hello,

I would like to use a 2x3 pin, 2.54mm spaced header connector for in-system
programming of the MCU, but I am pretty restricted in the vertical direction.
So I considered a side-mounted connector: one row of pins on the top side
of the PCB, and another row on the bottom side, similar to the header
on the right side of the following image:

Is it possible to describe it with a single footprint? Or should I separate
the 6-pin connector to two three-pin ones in my schematics, and then use
two identical footprints - one for the top side, and another one for the
bottom side?

	Thanks,

-Yenya
