I committed milestone A) this evening.

I will watch my email tomorrow for problem reports and calls for help.

I also tagged the product branch revision just preceding the A) commit as 
"pre-kiway".

So if you need to build that version, you can check it out using the tag.

bzr co -rtag:pre-kiway  lp:kicad

or something like that.

-----------------------

I was out of breath, put forth a super human effort at the end to outrun the 
deluge of
inbound commits, many of which were barely going to merge or weren't going to 
merge.

Let me assure you that this commit is going to be unique in the history of the 
project.
So please do not be dismayed if some things work differently.

I am here to help, and eventually the pond ripples will settle down.

There is one link issue outstanding if you are building for wxpython scripting. 
 You can
either find a fix or comment out

        pcbnewFinishPythonScripting();

near line 479 of pcbnew/pcbnew.cpp.

A fix is preferred, and it is something in CMakeLists.txt for pcbnew.  But to 
be honest, I
have python scripting work scheduled for milestone C), not A) or B).  So that 
particular
topic will not be my main priority until later.  Other problems you may have I 
intend to
help with diligently.

When you install, you will be installing tandem binaries now for the main 
program modules.
 So there will be both a

1) pcbnew (exe), and
2) _pcbnew.kiface

binary files.

I suggest you run using the Debug build for awhile.  This is necessary to smoke 
out any
dialogs which are not derived from DIALOG_SHIM.  There still could be some, and 
Debug
build will find them.  Otherwise there Kiway() window function will return NULL 
and you'll
get a crash.  wxformbuilder can be used to stuff DIALOG_SHIM under any dialog 
windows that
turn up this way.
