------------------------------
(from: http://klayout.de/development.html)
Version 0.24.10
Release date: 2017-04-01
Features:
Enhancements: New method CellView#is_dirty? This method indicates
that a cell view needs saving
Bugfix: DEF reader was not able to read routing Routed segments
with vias plus continued wiring were not read. Instead an error
message was shown saying "Invalid orientation specification"
Bugfix: Setting "technology-data" configuration property did not
work Reading or writing the "technology-data" configuration
property is the only way to access technology data from a
script. Hence it's important that this property can be set. With
this patch, "technology-data" can be set to an XML string which
has the same format than the one stored within the configuration
file.
Bugfix: Reader issues with some RVE files The RVE reader could not
read files with cell names containing hyphens (like "A-B").
Bugfix: Inplace operators are now working in Python too For
example "r1 += r2" was not working (r1 and r2 are pya.Region
objects for example).

SOLVESPACE is a parametric 3d CAD program. Applications include:
modeling 3d parts - draw with extrudes, revolves, and Boolean
(union / difference) operations
modeling 2d parts - draw the part as a single section, and export
DXF, PDF, SVG; use 3d assembly to verify fit
3d-printed parts - export the STL or other triangle mesh expected
by most 3d printers
preparing CAM data - export 2d vector art for a waterjet machine
or laser cutter; or generate STEP or STL, for import into
third-party CAM software for machining
mechanism design - use the constraint solver to simulate planar
or spatial linkages, with pin, ball, or slide joints
plane and solid geometry - replace hand-solved trigonometry and
spreadsheets with a live dimensioned drawing

Release notes for pcb-4.0.0
========================================================================
Dear Users,
It has been quite some time since the last snapshot of pcb was released
in March 2014.
Since then quite a lot of bugs were fixed and new features added, below
this introduction a summary is given of the improvements and additions
since the latest snapshot "pcb-20140316".
This release represents over 480 commits (mostly bugfixes and code
refactoring) and as such this summary clearly is not complete.
This pcb release 4.0.0 has a significant change in the major version
number.
This is done to make a fresh start and to get away from the 1.99z
version with YYYYMMDD snapshots.
Kind regards,
The pcb development team
User experience improvements
----------------------------
- added the command-line option --save-metric-only.
- added escaping of Attribute values.
- added a translation of the Getting Started with PCB for pt_BR.
- added translatable tooltips for toolbar buttons.
- added "Report net length" to Menu -> Info in Gtk.
- added a script for generating a key binding list.
- added tooltips in the GTK HID UI.
- the puller no longer crosses unplated holes.
- solder/component outer layer names changed to top/bottom.
- pcb now uses a tilde instead of a dash for backup filenames.
- corrections in the user documentation.
- the position "delta" display no longer forces the GTK HID window to
grow.
- write time in ASCII locale into exported files.
- allow for up to 10000 dpi on png exporter output.
Plugins
-------
- added smartdisperse for dispersing elements better, contributed by
Ben Jackson.
- added relocate for relocating elements, contributed by Jean Richard.
- added RenumberBlock() and RenumberBuffer(), contributed by DJ Delorie.
- added teardrops(), contributed by DJ Delorie.
Exporters
---------
- added a netlister conforming to the IPC-D-356 standard, contributed by
Jerome Marchand.
- changed "as-shown" to "screen-layer-order" in the png and eps hids.
Footprints library
------------------
- added a SC88A footprint.
- added a LQFP80-10 footprint.
- added QFN24_5 and TQFN24_5 footprints.
- added a SOD523 footprint.
- the SOT325 package had a wrong numbering.
- renamed the SOT325 footprint to SOT353.
- in the ALF footprint the drill holes were too tight.
- an infinite loop in the SIL m4 macro was fixed.
Developer experience improvements
---------------------------------
- made a start with adding Doxygen developer documentation tags in the
source files.
A pcb.dox configuration file is available in the "doc/doxygen"
directory so developers can build the documentation there by invoking
"doxygen pcb.dox" from the CLI.
This is not done by configuring with --enable-docs, which is solely
reserved for the generation of User documentation.
- added numerous fixes in the win32 target.
Notes for early adapters
------------------------
In the git repository two tags have been added to allow for checking
out of pcb-4.0.0 at the branch point (git checkout pcb-4.0.0-base) or at
the release point (git checkout pcb-4.0.0-RELEASE).
This is in line with tagging done in former snapshots.
Changed dependencies
--------------------
- autoconf 2.60 --> 2.69.
- gettext 0.14 --> 0.19.3.

-----------------------------
From: http://klayout.de/development.html
Release date: 2016-11-29
Enhancements: The RBA::Region#smooth function was enhanced to give
somewhat better results
Enhancements: DXF's circle approximation can now also specified
through an "accuracy" parameter: if less than the number of specified
points is required to achieve the given accuracy, the number is
reduced accordingly. This also applies to the polygon interpolation
of spline and arc curves.
Enhancement: RBA integration now is compatible with Ruby 2.3 which
allows building on Ubuntu 16 as well.
Enhancement: OASIS files with instance angles >360 were rejected
before. Now, this has turned into a warning.

Release notes for EAGLE 7.7.0
=============================
* Licensing:
- Update of various spots in EAGLE regarding the license changes introduced
by Autodesk: Standard, Premium, Ultimate, Express and Educational.
The 30 day trial license has been removed.
* ULPs:
- Added 'manufacturing.ulp' provided by Autodesk. It supports an upload of EAGLE
drawing files to 'circuits.io' in order to generate manufacturing data which
can then be downloaded. The ULP is accessible as an icon in the board editor.
- Added 'ecadio.ulp' provided by Autodesk. It supports an upload of EAGLE boards
to 'ecad.io' in order to generate a 3D PCB for use in MCAD systems.
The ULP is accessible as an icon in the board editor.
* UI improvements:
- Added Option.SignalNames to display the signal names on the signal wires
and on the connected pads and SMDs.
It can be set in the Settings dialog under 'Misc/Display signal names'.
- The options Option.SignalNames, Option.PadNames and Option.ViaLength are
set to 'On' by default.
* Miscellaneous:
- Improved visibility of scrollbars for common window styles on Linux.
- Silently ignoring double references to a contact within a signal when loading
a board file.
- CAM Processor: when running 'Process Job' with more than one section,
it is checked if the job covers the Layer Setup only partially.
- The file locking option has been switched off by default. Use 'Backup/Locking'
under 'Options' in Control Panel to turn it on.
- Update of EAGLE logo to the new appearance since Autodesk acquisition.
- Update of Hungarian translation (GUI without help and manual).
* Bugfixes:
- Fixed UL functions strsplit() and lookup() to handle unusual UTF8 characters
as separator.
- Fixed potential crash of the 64 bit versions when loading EAGLE drawings
from old format (e.g. V3.55).
- Image export to TIFF format in monochrome: fixed a regression regarding the
compression method.
- The selected object is no longer removed from the group after running a ULP
started through 'SET CONTEXT Object ...'; the ULP might want to use this
one-object group afterwards with e.g. 'exit("move (>@)")'.
- Ensuring valid move of polygon wires or an entire polygon if selecting a
wire with 'SET CONTEXT Wire ...' or using setgroup() in a ULP.
- Fixed history of dlgStringEdit to become case sensitive.
- Fix for refresh of images in Control Panel preview on Windows.
- Added a check for identical pinrefs when loading a schematic to avoid a
possible crash.
- Fixed deleting/splitting busses with portrefs involved: it could happen that
new port connections couldn't be established anymore.
- Fixed selecting an end of a wire with the context menu.
- Fix for ULP function ingroup() returning true for too many objects after
UNDOing of transferring a group to another sheet.
Command Line Tools:
Add -block switch to dwg2pdf, dwg2bmp, dwg2svg and dwg2maptiles
dwg2svg:
Add -layer-attribute switch to export layer attributes (into QCAD namespace)
dwg2bmp:
Add -noweightmargin switch to avoid extra margin to account for lineweights
Command line widget:

Modify:
Explode:
Explode block arrays into separate block references
Explode solid fills into boundary
Break out:
Break out segments from self-intersecting polylines
Misc:

Bug fixes:
FS#1461 - Zoom in / out: not centred under mouse cursor if Retina resolution is enabled for graphics view
FS#1466 - Toolbars on second screen cannot be accessed if second screen is detached
FS#1474 - Dimension > Leader: changing options breaks tool
FS#1476 - Draw > Circle > 2 Tangents and Radius: exception with arcs and circle entities
FS#1479 - Modify > Explode: too many segments for splines with large tolerance
FS#1481 - Block List: update changes selected item
FS#1491 - Layer > Create Layer from Selection: cancelling dialog fails
FS#1497 - Autosnap: hangs with very complex splines
FS#1508 - QCAD CE: Subscript and superscript formatting lost when file re-opened

Also as part of this update, I have removed the example plugins that do nothing (as
on the QCAD forum, the author states that these may slow down the operation)
Patch Version 2.1.3
r-a-v-a-s released this on 23 Sep
Bugs eliminated:
* Shift would not activate the command line
* Command+Tab didn't always activate the current drawing on OS X
Commit Log => https://github.com/LibreCAD/LibreCAD/commits/2.1.3
Patch Version 2.1.2
r-a-v-a-s released this on 16 Sep · 4 commits to 2.1 since this release
Bugs eliminated:
* wouldn't build with gcc 5.4 and 6
* mouse cursor was missing for `Arc Tangential'
* right-click with plugins could cause a crash
* construction lines were not drawn when the line segment was out of view
* DXF files with comments were not properly loaded
* drawings were not marked as modified after an `undo'
* the command line didn't accept numpad input
* the command widget didn't activate properly when floating
Commit Log => https://github.com/LibreCAD/LibreCAD/commits/2.1.2
This large commit accomplishes the following:
1) Switch USE_LANGUAGES=ada to require lang/gcc5-aux (gcc 5.4) instead
of lang/gcc-aux (gcc 4.9.2) on gcc.mk
2) Bump affected ports and fix paths as necessary
3) Upgrade devel/gprbuild to the latest release
- No longer requires lang/gnat_util
- gprslave requires gcc6-aux, so it was disabled for now
4) Fix lang/gnat_util but set PKG_SKIP_REASON
- It has no further purpose in the pkgsrc tree
- It has no practical purpose outside of the pkgsrc tree
- Indicate intent to remove from tree in Jan. 2017
5) Set devel/GPS as failed with PKG_FAIL_REASON
- This version of GPS is several years old and at the time they were
strongly tied to compiler.
- Latest release of GPS require gcc6-aux (not available) and several
new and complex dependencies
- maintainer (me) has no interest to continue supporting it
- Leaving GPS in place until Jan 2017 to give another person chance to
upgrade and take over support
- Latest version in FreeBSD Ports Collection as a reference point
-----------------------------
3.3.77 03oct16 Updated documentation to include an appendix on FST
implementation details.
Removed '!A || (A && B)' is equivalent to '!A || B' redundant
condition checks where found in source.
Added hier_ignore_escapes rc variable.
Dynamic resizing tweaks for when it is turned off.
Added HUWL-? value types to signal_change_list() to keep GHW
files from crashing Tcl scripts.
VeriWell is a full Verilog simulator. It supports nearly all of the
IEEE1364-1995 standard, as well as PLI 1.0.
Yes, VeriWell *is* the same simulator that was sold by Wellspring Solutions in
the mid-1990 and was included with the Thomas and Moorby book.
