[sdiy] Duplicates and multiples in KiCAD

[Tim Parkhurst]

So I've run into a situation where I need to do duplicates and
panelized boards in KiCAD, and I have to admit I have no idea how to
go about it, or even if it's possible.

By "duplicates" I mean duplicating most of a circuit several times on
a single board, For example two or three LFO circuits on a PCB, all
fed by the same power input and maybe featuring some other common
circuitry.

By "multiples" I mean duplicating an entire board several times to
make a panelized layout. The separate boards would then be cut apart
later.

Oooh, one more question: is there a way to import Gerbers into KiCAD?

Of course, I'm going to go fish around and find some KiCAD forums, but
I figure I'd ask here first, since this is where all the cool kids
hang out.
