I am sure you will do the readers of your web site a good service by adding a link to our www.linuxcad.com web page. Our software is not inferior to other packages you already linked to. As far as FreeBSD is concerned we were very impressed with a quality and ease of installation of WalnutCreek FreeBSD Desktop Edition package that is based on KDE. Also the pthread library implementation looks firly decent. The system comes with gcc 2.95 which is particulary nice. The only surprise was seeming bug in FreeBSD tar implementation that was failing on us half way on tar files longer then 100Meg. If not that we would our master build and developemnt environment to FreeBSD.
