Well, it'll be at svn.gumstix.com/gumstix-hardware/eagle but  
otherwise, yes

I'm not an eagle guy, and maybe "ulp" and "scr" mean something  
special and need to be spelled that way, but can we call them  
"utilities" and "scripts" or something so that humans can read the  
names?  I think most people have operating systems which have moved  
beyond DOS 8.3 filenames these days.

I guess this is the part where maybe the "scr" and "ulp" directory  
names are important.
