Well said, Bob. If we /really/ want Eagle users to move to gEDA/gaf
and PCB (and I do, because I'm sick fed up of seeing "open hardware"
being developed on Eagle), the whole pipeline needs to run (and run
well i.e. as close to native as we can get within reason) on Windows
platforms.

In fact, I'd go further and say that if we also had a native OS X
build (not macports/fink) we'd have a pretty killer proposition for
the open hardware community.

Cheers
Gareth
