That=92s about pcb. I have little interest in pcb-specific discussions.

To start, we should think about how to represent the additional data in =
a schematic. If there are downstream tools that can handle this data, =
the way they encode it may be of interest. Generally, though, this is a =
gschem issue: how do we devise symbols and attributes that represent =
what we want? Do we need changes in the core (I hope not)? Translation =
to the various layout and simulation tools is then a job for gnetlist or =
xorn. Pcb, having no mechanism to do anything with this data, isn't =
terribly relevant at present.

What we need is knowledge of layout programs that *can* handle this sort =
of extra data. Without tools to export to, what good is it? Finding out =
this information seems difficult.
