Need help in generating a simple land pattern and comments from
  the assembler. Our land pattern expert is busy, so I decided to
generate
  a footprint for a MIL-PRF-55681/4E, CDR12 style ceramic cap...Not
  a problem...WRONG !!!  The IPC land pattern calculator asks very
  embarrassing questions like "Fab Tol", "Place Acrcy" and the ever
  popular "Solder Joint Design Goals"  Do I really have to talk to a
group
  of people to get those numbers or are there "rule-of-thumb" numbers
  that I can use ??? I would think that those numbers could also be
  assembler dependent. Suggestions welcomed !!

  Also,  are there any assemblers out there that would like to comment on
  using this .055 X .055 part. Remember that this is a family forum and
young
  children may be reading your comments. :) :)

  Thanks in advance for all help/suggestions/comments. Enjoy..
