Suffix codes - Orion Pobursky - 2024-05-03
There's been some confusion and discussion about the codes after the p/c/d parts.
Composites © and Sticker shortcuts (d) do not have themes. These suffixes should use the first available code starting with 00.
Historically, patterns (p) have had their suffixes in themes. These parts can continue to be assigned to the next available in those legacy themes. If the theme is used up (e.g. p00-p0z exist) then the author can assign whatever code is available regress of theme.
Once all of the p/c/d00-zz codes are used for a given part number, we will progress to using p/c/dXXXX codes.
The library spec will be updated shortly to reflect this change.

The Official Library Part Number Specification has been updated to Revision 2 to reflect this policy.
