Ok so I admit I am a bum and nag two people I consider the best layout makers to make me free layouts. Dan is great and Nik at Ceriatone just made me this one. What do you guys think!? God Bless Dan and Nik!
Anything need to be corrected?

One very minor thing is that the safety ground on the IEC socket should have its own ground lug near the socket and nothing else should be grounded on the same lug.

About all I see too and I probably wouldve missed it.

I didn't know that about the mains lead grounding point. Why is that?

It is for safety reasons. I can't think of a fault situation off the top of my head that would make soldering a signal ground to the safety ground a bad deal, but nevertheless it is required and by law in many places. Plus, any current that might flow through that safety ground is going to be really oddly shaped and you don't want it interacting with any signal currents.
hmmm
