That's indeed the question. Now you have both, a closed team existing
for years, zero membership gain in the last five years, coding almost
halted except for gschem. And you have another team, gaining 5 members
in 10 days and just as many substantial code contributions (not counting
mine) in that time.

Compare yourself!

The bug tracker is a unified one for all of gEDA. Not very obvious,
because so far almost only pcb bugs were added there, but that's the plan.

I wrote this repeatedly already. At the risk of sounding like a broken
record: I tried, and was shown the door. The same happened to many others.

With gEDAhead this problem is gone. gEDAhead welcomes everybody. 50
members are good, 100 are better and when it reaches the 1000, corcs
will pop.
