I agree, it could have been worse, but reorganising makes it a lot clearer.

Your patch didn't apply cleanly after my recent io.sch changes, so I 
ended up redrawing it largely as you had.  Committed as revision 5340.

I spaced the components a little more to have 200mm of plain wire 
between any joint (I'll try to pull together the scattered bits of style 
guide we've adopted soon - unless someone beats me to it), and ended up 
tweaking it a little to my preference...  Not sure if spliting the 
grounds is more clear or less than how you had it?

Nope, they weren't needed, though the sheet change was pretty harmless - 
it'll just get overwritten again at some point.


Thanks again,

Dave
