hello qi-hardware, I've a few questions about open hardware first one is which CAD application do people generally use to design? I'm using KiCad but recently did a blog post on my adventures into open hardware. I felt there were holes in tools but I'm just starting to look into this. So is KiCad a reasonable choice?
<erichvk__>
pick a cad package you like and make sure your PCB layout editor can import its format or an intermediate format
<erichvk__>
don;t necessarily look for an all in one solution, which might do everything, poorly

I'm happy enough with KiCad but just wondered. I just find there are a few limitations with it. Same as anything else I guess.
