+===== Footprint naming conventions =====
+This section describes the conventions for naming of footprints used in PCB (and gEDA/gaf).\\
+The purpose of the naming convention is to establish a standard to maintain the same naming convention through the different phases of the CAD chain. This helps in ensuring that the collaborative effort of gEDA/gaf is not lost.
+==== Notes ====
+  * Unless otherwise noted, numerical pin names will be used, starting from 1.
+  * n is for the pin count.
+  * m is for the pin spacing in mils.
+  * x is for the x dimension of the package (excluding pins). In particular this is used for the QFP package family.
+  * SMT means surface mount, other components are through-hole.
+==== Integrated circuit packages ====
+  * Dual in line packages with up to 22 100 mil spaced pins and 300 mil row spacing are called DIPn.
+  * Dual in line packages with 24 or more 100 mil spaced pins and 300 mil row spacing are called DIPnN.
