Thanks!

It worries me at times. The creator has moved on but can still be consulted on stuff. The 2nd lead maintainer burned out and nominated me. I see my position as somewhat temporary, but I'm willing to hold it until 1) I get the improvements done that I want to and 2) the right successor comes along - which I worry may never happen ;-)

>> I do believe open source CAD can get there, but it'll require more coordination.

Completely agree. Not sure how to focus all the different efforts though. Talking about it is certainly a start.
