	I just gave about an hour to KiCAD.

	From my point of view it is different.

	It is one rather monolitic piece of software. The gEDA is a lot of
	smaller tools. Personaly I like the second approach.

	The good thing about the pcb editor is that polygons belongs to an
	net. So it automaticly connect to the same net and avoids all
	the other nets.

	There is really a lot of differences, some bigger some smaller.
	But from my point of view it is very simillar. And I have no
	idea which one is better.
