Andrew does a pretty good job of getting improvements out. They have a commercial copy of it, ie one they sell for $$$, so they probably aren't really interested in it become mainstream. QCAD itself if pretty stable. There are a few little bugs, but nothing major. Like I said, I put about 20 hours in on it last week. Version 2 was a big step ahead over version 1.x. I rejected V1.x because I found it hard to use and I couldn't understand the doc for even the simplest operations, like deleting a line for example ! Once I figured out the commands, it works really well. I don't know what RH/Fedora's stance is on working with existing development teams, but they've done a good job and continue to do so as far as I am concerned. > > Is that group in contact with Andrew at Ribbonsoft ? > > You could add yourself to above ticket and find out.
