Battery Connector Polarity is Labeled Incorrectly on PCB #19

We are using version 2.6. Looking at the PCB design (board.brd), I noticed that between the connector where the battery is plugged in and the header for the left encoder there is silkscreen text (on layer 25, tNames) that says "VCC GND" (see screenshot). Mislabeled Battery connector It seems that this label is intended for the battery connector; however, if so, they are reversed! As the screenshot shows, ground is actually on the left and VCC is on the right. This should be fixed.

Hey @abrahamjsimpson,

Thank you for reporting this issue.

I incorporated this modification in the 2.7 version of the board.

Best, Rezeck
