Others have asked so yes I think i will open source them but I want to standardize on a versionless release, so im not sure yet how im going to do it.
There's also a new Moteino variant coming so that might influence this release :)

Might it be the 2xAAA variant that I've been pushing for?  Hopefully clocked at 8Mhz on the internal oscillator...

You bet ;)
It's the 8mhz that can run down to 1.8v. I need to iron down the details ...

Sweet!  I need to hurry up and get PCBs.io to fab my AB1815 boards then!  I need to be able to run a Mote off 2xl92s for 20+ years.  Are you putting the battery clips directly on the board?  I haven't made my final design yet, but I do believe there is plenty of space between the 8 PTHs for everything.  I was thinking clips/batteries/328p on the top of the board and radio underneath.  The 328p easily fits between the batteries since the clips hold them off the board a bit.

It's going the be the standard Moteino with no LDO and special fuses. No other changes in hardware. VIN and 3v3 pins are connected (both are input).

I have considered adding battery clips but unfortunately the different holders I tried for this project have very different spacing and tabs, also others might consider using different types of batteries. So ... I decided to just use the same Moteino and maybe if there's demand, make another battery adapter shield for different holder options. But honestly its so easy to just take a small proto board and solder the holder anywhere, then attach it to the Moteino on the 0.1" spaced header (GND, VIN).

If you're asking about the 8Mhz Moteino, it's already available in the shop.
Re a library, I have only released a library that includes PCB pinouts for Moteino and MoteinoMEGA, available here.

I was refering to the R6 eagle files, I wanted to practice some eagle so I tried to convert your R4 eagle files to R6 but got a bit of trouble finding the space  ;D so I guess you did some rework on the other stuff in it to make space for the new antena plug, new capacitor and moved led.
that was the reason.
thanks anyway felix, always learning from your work
