Thanks for posting, I was hoping that i did not scare you off the other day
on the intellicad forum. The people at Cadopia provide a number of services
and have always been very understanding to the Linux users in the group.
It's sort of a unspoken rule that we try to only use the forum for
Intellicad/cadopia related issues.
That said, what do you have so far?
I went by software forge. I found your page.
I could not find a link to any type status or feature list. as i said before
I'm interested to see what you have. I went to the OpenDWG site(i go there a
few times a week), and did a search for the word linux. The most recent
posting was in Febuary/2001.
have you posted your "Call for help" there?
feel free to keep making anouncements to this list.
in fact, I would appreciate if you signed up to receive from the list as well.
these are the type of projects that this list is meant for.
