> gEDA attracted and retained *me*.
If you are only interested in attracting users like yourself then you 
are missing out on a huge group of users.

>   gEDA covers a very different space: that’s what it’s for.
That's what you like to use it for.  I like to use it for simple 
schematic capture and pcb layouts that can be driven from a Makefile and 
other command-line tools.

The fact that we even need to have this discussion is indicative of the 
problem, and suggests that a positive resolution is unlikely.
