amusingly, i was poking around last week for a friend, looking for
linux-friendly CAD packages and, yes, gEDA ended up on the top of
several lists, but is there somewhere a detailed critique of what gEDA
will and will not do?

that is, if you were theoretically propose to middle-level management
to replace the existing CAD package with gEDA, you'd certainly be
expected to admit all of its shortcomings.  is there such a detailed
description somewhere?
