Frustratingly, they have obviously not open sourced all design files. The only similar file formats present in that repo are: PDF, DXF, and SVG. No source files!

We will post the design files soon. We just need to organize them a bit.
P.S. I'm a Wiretrustee author

Okay great! Just wanted to make sure. I’ve recently used the CERN-OHL-P license for my hardware designs, you might want to consider that.
Thanks for the reply. Sorry about the supply chain problems, very frustrating.

Very exciting! Happenstance yesterday renewed my interest in DIYing a CM4-based laptop motherboard replacement, and having more open designs to learn from will only help that. I'm looking at qty=1 so expensive components aren't such an impediment...
I wish more designs would go open when they're no longer commercially viable. All it's going to do in the long term is breed better hardware designers, after all.
