gEDA-dev: Before 1.4.0?

[Peter Clifton]

New icons?:
  Should we change over to Tomaz's app icon set? I'm not sure the 
  xgsch2pcb icon fits with the mime-icon really at the moment, but
  guess isn't of great concern. The absence of a gattrib icon is of
  some concern to me though.

Fix net consolidating crash:
  Sorry, I've not yet had chance to dig deeper into whether the "fix" I 
  proposed is right or not. I've been on a self imposed computer ban,
  leaving my laptop power adaptor at the lab until I can learn to sleep 
  at sensible times! (And have been otherwise busy with work)

Fix the most commonly encountered "new user" problem:
  gsch2pcb and / or gnet_gsch2pcb.scm needs to be taught what the rules 
  for valid M4 macro names are (e.g. no '-' characters), and MUST NOT 
  pass these to M4, instead printing a loud warning. If I get time, I'll
  look into this, but if not.. thought I'd mention the idea here in case
  anyone else has time to do it. It could have a real benefit.

Best wishes,
