[sdiy] Goodbye Eagle...

[Brother Theo]

I got the notification by answering an email about a forum post I made. If
it wasn't for that I'd be caught out in June.

So I migrated to KiCad. Turns out it's not as bad as I remember. I
implemented a library and it looks like it will handle BOM creation better
than Eagle did.
