Compass Module (29133) Errors in "Module Dimensions" Drawing

On page 3 of the document, "Compass Module 3-Axis HMC5883L (#29133)," the "Module Dimensions" drawing contains some bad data, specifically regarding the location of the mounting hole. The measurements I've taken indicate a hole position far removed from the dimensions given in the drawing.

Please do this drawing again with the correct dimensions, and consider the following:
1. Dimensions should be stated from the lower left-hand corner, not from the top.
2. Dimensions to a hole location should be to the center of the hole, not to its edge.
3. It's always important to include position information for the connecting pins, not just for the board outline and mounting-hole locations.

Thanks,
-Phil
