Wait a minute !. Does it really say 0 (ZERO) unconnected ? YES ! It's been more than a year since I started this, and at least 2 times I considered giving up. But finally I completed the routing of the PCB !

Still have to go inspect it carefully (I actually spotted one chip that was not connected to power today...) but it looks like there may be an end to this project after all.

Oh, and I have not yet added the edge connectors :-( These are not supported as standard components by KiCad and so I'll have to make them manually. Which is probably going to take some time as well.

(This 3D view in KiCad is such an awesome feature)
