Very cool! I always like to see more activity in the open-source CAD space.

It must take a lot of motivation to create your own CAD. Were you dissatisfied with other open-source offerings, or do you have a different philosophy you're shooting for, or did you want to try it yourself for the satisfaction?

I think most will agree open source cad is lacking. At least in the 3d solid modeling world. Philosophy? Tough question! I guess, "Everything Should Be Made as Simple as Possible, But Not Simpler".

I see why you wouldn't be satisfied with FreeCAD then!
