gEDA-dev: gerber importer/panelizer

[Stuart Brorson]

Ummm, I believe that gerbv already allows for this.  Panelization is
not in the released version, but *has* been implemented in the trunk
available via CVS.  You can use gerbv as a panelization filter.

Ask Julian for more details.

Cheers,

Stuart
