That is one thing.  Also they stated their wants as "integrated printed circuit board layout"
and valued not having anything else except maybe simulation hooks. I bet gEDA seems too complicated.

The main thing was probably they asked me to be their gEDA rep. because I was a list member of 
updates@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and I said too busy, I'll ask the core developers.  I don't remember anyone
getting excited or involved, so they figured not enough cooperation/interest.
