Hello Everyone,

I just came across this video of Thomas Liratsch (Managing Directory of

CadSoft) at the Embedded World show in Nuremberg, Germany.  This is the

first public information I've heard about the v7 release.  Not many details

yet but he mentioned 3 main points:

- expected release of mid-2014

- new auto-router module, completely redone

- hierarchical design  -- that's a big one for many

If they nail these and clean up a bunch of the little things that need

polishing this could be a solid release.  See video below...

In Embedded world 2014 I was also told about "improved license management"

lingering for V7...

That's ominous.  I think EAGLE has, hands-down, the best licensing

management of ANY CAD tool.  It's hard to improve the current system for

users.

that would most likely be improved form cadsofts point of view 8-(

I most sincerely hope that won't be the case.
