Hi, Random comments for a few of the topics discussed or proposed:
- "Format" -> "Coordinate Format": The Gerber standard <https://www.ucamco.com/files/downloads/file/81/the_gerber_file_format_specification.pdf> uses Coordinate format for this, so I think this change is OK. - "solder mask" vs "solder stop mask": I'm European and I've never used (or heard used) "solder stop mask". Always solder mask or I've also used resist or solder resist. But I think solder mask is the most common. - "Save Messages to File": +1 - "Default line width" -> "Line width": please don't. The former is more descriptive and correct in my opinion.
