FreeCAD, thought usable in certain areas, is at the beginning of a long way into the CAD mainstream. there is still a lot to do to reach a state where we can compete with commercial software.
This section gives you an overview whats planed and gives you the opportunity to participate or give your opinion. As we are volunteers to FreeCAD we have only a certain amount of time. So if you interested in one of the topics and willing to help, just let us know! We use the things done style for the project document. Here is the Project template.
Projects
Actual projects
This are work in progress.
- Quality project aims to hide unfinished features and improve the documentation.
- PartDesign project is the effort towards a working part-design in FreeCAD
- Resource framework project address the user collaboration, PDM and catalog/standard part stuff
Future projects
Projects for the near future.
- Assembly project creates a assembly module which handle product creation, part-lists and some kinematics.
- FEM project wants to create a FEM module in FreeCAD
- CAM project will make the existing CAM stuff in FreeCAD usable.
Ideas
Release schedule
Like in the most FLOSS projects a release schedule is very rugh. There will be no fixed dates and "It's done, when it's done!"
