Small issue... The schematic has the pinout for the Pmod wrong. A surprising claim for the sloppiest standard I've ever seen.

Slop not withstanding, everything's very consistent on one point: Pin 1 is on the opposite end from the supply lines, and the numbering is as if two 6-pin Pmods are sitting next to each other.

PMOD Function
1 Pmod.1
2 Pmod.2
3 Pmod.3
4 Pmod.4
5 GND
6 VCC
7 Pmod.7
8 Pmod.8
9 Pmod.9
10 Pmod.10
11 GND
12 VCC

This excerpt from the LPF file shows the correct way, I think.

Ahrg, jeeze, that means it's wrong on the silkscreen of the final version now, I must've been asleep while adding that connector. Makes me wonder what to do: change the lpf and mismatch the silkscreen or declare the pmod as being 'almost pmod'. Leaving this open because I now want to check the other conns as well/

I don't see any silk screen at all ? Am I missing something ?

Proto2 does not have silkscreen for this, proto 3 and the final version have the pinouts of various connectors on the siklscreen, including the (wrong) pmod pinout.

Here is a picture of the silk on the rear side of badge. We can note this quirk in documentation once it's decided what the best resolution is for the issue.
