I have been dabbling in dia for a couple of years and have

been involved on the dia-list but maybe I should be so
this is my first release of these shapes. I really don't know
how to get these shapes intergrated into the distribution
or if that is possible or necessary but here they are.

Wow, this is beautiful!  I especially like the nicely colored icons.  We
should do that for the other sheets as well, it makes them so much easier
to navigate.  Thank you so much for this contribution!

A couple comments: 

Some of the PCB shapes, mostly the SMD's, don't have any connection points.
Is that on purpose (he asks, with next to zero knowledge of PCB stuff).

The RCA Jacks have a white ellipse cutting out some of the circle.  Is that
supposed to be that way, or are you just trying to make an arc?  Arcs can
be made directly in SVG.

Some but not all of the shapes allow the line color to be set.  Leaving out
the color spec from the line allows setting.  

Thanks again for an excellent contribution.
