Questions relating to designing PCBs

Doing a final visual inspection of some Gerber files before sending them off to the fab, and I noticed that the pinout for the LD1117V33 part ("V_REG_LD1117VXX" in the Sparkfun Eagle library) seems to be incorrect. The TO-220 LD1117V33 is kinda weird, Ground, Output, Input. The Sparkfun part has the pins labeled like a standard 7805, etc., IGO.

I looked through the comments for the part on the product page, noticed a couple guys complaining about it, so I made a new part with (hopefully) the right pinout for board layout.

Could someone verify that this is the right pinout?

Thx,

According to the STMicro datasheet I found on Mouser.com, you have the correct pinout: 1=GND, 2=Vout, 3=Vin.

Sweet, thanks. Just needed a second set of eyes.

If someone from Sparkfun wants to update their libraries with this part, be my guest.
