I know plenty of students who are enthusiastic about writing software packages and some of tehm are even interested in doing gpl'ed cad programs. The thing which limits their abilities is a lack of information on how to get started. If someone could write a quick n' dirty guide on the steps required to write a cad/cam software, it'd be a great help.
