Hi,

The files within the zip file are zip compressed as well.

The GIF Schematic file has some differences to the actual hardware.

I was trying to draw up a schemtic in Altium Designer, where I found some differences ftom thd PCB file.

I have tried to migrate the PCB file to KiCad, but the KiCad importer has some problems, it seems there are some violations in the PCB data.

I guess I will have to correct all the violations in Altium, which means a little learning on Altium Designer.

The CPLD data is in MACHXL fotmat, which predates Verilog, but maybe worth converting to get the Aurora board available.
