That was my impression as well. After kicking the tires for a while and
finding important things it cannot do which my current CAD can do, most
of the answers I received were along the lines of "can't do that right
now", "needs a fork", "give some money, maybe someone will code this in"
and so on.
So I've hung up on gEDA for now. But this doesn't mean I won't check
back in regularly because the idea of open source CAD is great.
