gEDA-user: TQFP footprints for pcb?

[Randall Nortman <geda-lists@wonderclown.org>]

I apologize if asking questions related to pcb, which is not
technically part of gEDA, is inappropriate for this list.  It just
seems to me that a lot of pcb-related discussion seems to happen here.
(More even than on the actual pcb mailing lists.)

I need a TQFP footprint, specifically TQFP64 (14mm square body, 0.8mm
pin pitch, 1.0mm pin length, I believe).  I'm pretty sure that I ought
to be able to use the LQFP64 footprint; I think the only difference
between these packages is that the TQFP is thinner (which makes no
difference to the footprint).  Anybody able to confirm this?

Also, what is the mechanism for sending symbol and footprint
definitions of standard components back to the developers for
inclusion in future releases?  Is there any sort of "contributed
component libraries" repository?

Thanks for any help,
