gEDA-user: Thanks for a good job

["Harold D. Skank" <skank54@xxxxxxxxx>]

gEDA people in general,

This e-mail is in the nature of a "well done!"  for your gEDA work.  I'm
a hardware designer by training, and among other things I managed a
design system for a university electronics design group for some 10 to
15 years.  Following my retirement, I began to use the gEDA tools as the
tool set for a consulting business I started.  In the course of the past
two years I have used gschem, PCB, gerbv, ngspice, and Icarus Verilog.
All have been impressive pieces of work.

I would be lying if I didn't admit I initially missed the tremendous
utility that existed with the commercial system I had managed, but the
growth in gEDA tools has been impressive.  Particularly, (while I
haven't had an opportunity to try the new features yet) I want to thank
DJ Delorie for his work in increasing the number of layers available in
PCB.

In the course of my work for the university, the largest board I ever
had to do was a 14 in. by 14 in. VME board using 13 layers.  While this
was unusual, the earlier 8 layer limit on PCB was just that, a
limitation, and to expand beyond that I view as a tremendous advance.

Well, I could go on and on, but the bottom line is "GOOD WORK," these
appear to me to be top quality tools and there ARE being used
professionally.

	Harold Skank
