Guys... please.


I know I was lazy to reflect your answers to my own questions that was
asked 2-3 month ago... (see thread 'work on geda')

But why reinvent the wheel? Git is working perfectly. GTK2 is acceptable.

In the other hand:

We can't do arbitrary stack setup in PCB. The file format of PCB is okay,
but it stops us doing lots of things. Element inclusion by reference.
Arbitrary rotation (this can be done, but it looks ugly).

People! Why are you thinking about things that is working? Why not innovate
things that are NOT working?

I send patches just to build the whole thing on FreeBSD. I think is a good
starting point. :-)
