[TriEmbed] [Splat Space] Opinion: best schematic drawing software

[Jeremy Davis]

I strongly agree with Brian about CAD software being superior in the long
run. KiCAD looks nice!

It is actually on my todo list to stoke up interest in open source CAD
software talks for an upcoming TriLUG meeting. Since 3dHubs came online, it
is really convenient to find people to print designs locally which is
awesome if you know how to create designs. Anyone interested in speaking at
TriLUG on this topic, feel free to send an email to steering at trilug.org
