[cad-linux] Re: Problems compiling drawingboard.cpp

I think it's more of an opensource thing and not just linux.

early on i was actually looking into freebsd, the people that i knew  who ran 
it had this "CAD DO" attitude that i liked and were not bothered when you 
asked for help.  in the process of trying to find a set of CD's i ran into 
Linux first(hastings/san marcos tx).  The linux croud was very much the same. 
 Linux may not last forever(maybe a few decades or so), but open source is 
definately here to stay(the next century).  

there are a few that have let the recent success of linux goto their heads, 
just ignore them.  those kind are in every croud.
:-)

I've been very impressed with cadopia, and some of the other icad venders as 
well.  I've been pestering Surya for a couple years and have yet to be told 
off once.  most cad companies do that on the first email, even if it is a 
pollite one.

Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of DOS,
and danced the skies on Linux silvered wings.
