When is Eagle v8 coming   out?

Justynb

Cadsoft.io is teasing with some features for the new version of Eagle, and

the main page states "It's coming. Soon".

 

Does anyone have any idea what kind of timescale the "soon" is? Could it be

this week, or next month, or three months?

 

The features they list sound promising:

 

  • Interactive router

  • BGA fanout

  • Synchronised reusable design blocks

  • It is VITAL that you don't sign out. If you sign out and then go

    offline, EAGLE won't have your licensing credentials and you won't be

    able to work.

    ....is that what we've all been waiting for?

     

    Since there must be a login, what guarantees the license won't mysteriously

    expire in the future?

    Hi Hoyt,

     

    Not sure what you mean here. The only reason a license would expire is

    if the subscription is not paid(for the free version you just need an

    account) or if you have been offline for more than 2 weeks.

     

    Not sure what would be mysterious, could you clarify?

    Sounds like Autodesk may have changed everything Eagle had going for it.

    How much does this "subscription" cost?  Is Eagle still the same low cost

    solution?  If not, KIcad is looking better.

    Hi Hoyt,

     

    The pricing now is actually better if you break down. Like Ed mentioned

    we will be releasing pricing information shortly once the new site is up.
