XML file format specification

I've ust heard great news that Eagle 6 supports an open XML based file format. But where could I find a specification of this format which I would use to "read, edit and parse the data outside of the EAGLE tool"?

Hi,

You should find the DTD inside the V6 installation. For example:

afustini@lappy486:/tmp/eagle-6.0.0/doc$ head eagle.dtd

Is that sufficient?

Cheers,

Be careful, If you use or include this dtd in your open source project it is no longer open source.
this license is not cc-by, but a non free hybrid.
