Re: gEDA-user: Enlarged footprints for hand soldering -- name conventions

[andrewm <andrewm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I asked the same question a few months ago and
didn't think the Nominal/Maximal/Least names
where suitable for my hand soldered footprints.

For the hand soldered footprints the pads extend
way past what is in the "maximal" JDEC footprint.

I decided to just postscript "HS" onto the end of
the footprint and keep them to myself so as to not
confuse other people.
