Mike Cousins has been working hard on pcb-stackup, the Gerber to board-view renderer that we use. I recently pulled in the latest changes which gives us an improved rendering of the Bus Pirate (pictured) and many other enhancements.

The upgrade was a bit daunting at first as the whole API had changed so we had a lot of discussion and worked out a simpler API. I went ahead and worked on a implementation that should be merged pretty soon. Hopefully this will give us some level of stability but still allow free reign to make improvements to the back-end.

Along with some added matching to whats-that-gerber, the Gerber layer type guesser and tweaks to some troublesome Gerbers we now have perfect rendering of all the projects currently on Kitnic!
