Some Hints
some hint on the sizes of the downloads at the top would be very usefull. if i'm travelling with my laptop with limited space and connection speed i'd like to know in advance wether i should attempt a downlowd or rather wait until i'm near some faster connection and have more hd space at hand.

Good point! ;-) --Pilotfish 14:53, 12 November 2006 (CET)

Hard to Compile
FreeCAD is very hard if not impossible to compile from source (many configuration problems including awkward libraries Wild Magic and Open Cascade) this does not make an attractive package and not real Open Source. Where is the source of Open Cascade anyway?

There fore we have the LibPack download which has all needed Libs. OpenCasCade.org has the Source of CasCade. And now one say that a Software of that size is easy to compile! Just use the installer ;-) --212.144.122.224 15:14, 25 November 2006 (CET)

 * Hi Michael, did you have a look on Tracker? It is maybe a better place for questions like this. -- Dr. Schorsch 09:43, 20 December 2006 (CET)
