| 13:18.02 | JucaBlues | I have been developing a library called LibreDWG which is a free DWG parser |
| 13:18.19 | JucaBlues | I want to see some free CAD tools using my lib |
| 13:18.37 | JucaBlues | are you interested in importing DWG files in brlcad? |
| 13:19.19 | brlcad | it depends, really -- wouldn't mind having a dwg import but it'll be tricky to make it a faithful import given our focus on solid 3d entities |
| 13:20.33 | JucaBlues | could the license of our lib be an issue? |
| 13:20.42 | JucaBlues | it is GPLv3 or later |
| 13:20.49 | brlcad | JucaBlues: plus your license would unfortunately be a non-starter for us -- it'd have to be LGPL/BSD/MIT/etc |
| 13:21.03 | brlcad | yeah, I was just writing that :) |
| 13:21.56 | brlcad | would you be able/willing to relicense it or is it unchangeable? |
| 13:22.00 | JucaBlues | I am tied to it, since the original lib was GPLv3 or later |
| 13:22.10 | JucaBlues | we forked from another project |
| 13:22.36 | JucaBlues | which was an initial code for a dwg parser but awkwaredly written in esperanto |
| 13:22.41 | brlcad | hm, yeah |
| 13:23.27 | JucaBlues | now we are reaching 100% of data structures decoding |
| 13:23.37 | JucaBlues | but we are not dealing much with the semantics yet |
| 13:23.57 | brlcad | that's pretty cool |
| 13:24.06 | brlcad | so is the main reason for the fork because of esperanto? |
| 13:24.10 | JucaBlues | I started to write an example application that converts 2d dwg files into svg |
| 13:24.11 | brlcad | or some team dynamics |
| 13:24.23 | JucaBlues | yes, esperanto was the issue |
| 13:24.37 | brlcad | know if they'd be willing to relicense? |
| 13:24.51 | JucaBlues | I'd have to ask for it. |
| 13:27.05 | JucaBlues | but BSD and GPLv3 can be mixed, right? |
| 13:27.16 | JucaBlues | the results being GPLv3, I guess... |
| 13:27.29 | brlcad | yeah, it's one-way |
| 13:27.37 | brlcad | so still not useful for our use |
| 13:27.45 | JucaBlues | ok |
| 13:28.01 | brlcad | we're presently LGPLv2 as a unified package |
| 13:30.30 | JucaBlues | a gplv3 dwg importer for brlcad maintained as a patch that one would apply on its local copy would be bad ? |
| 13:31.05 | brlcad | no, of course that wouldn't be "bad" .. just not a great long-term direction unfortunately |
| 13:31.18 | brlcad | not something that we could ship unified, it would have to stay separate |
| 13:31.34 | ``Erik | might be easier to have an external project that could link to BRL-CAD's libraries for converting to .g ? |
| 13:31.52 | brlcad | basically what he's suggesting |
| 13:32.52 | JucaBlues | are you aware of any GPLv3 compatible CAD? |
| 13:33.52 | brlcad | JucaBlues: we're the _only_ open source CAD system that's in full production use that I'm aware of |
| 13:34.02 | brlcad | there are a few other smaller projects around though |
| 13:34.14 | ``Erik | qcad community is probably the closest :/ |
| 13:34.45 | brlcad | yeah, though qcad already uses dxf heavily under the hood |
| 13:35.09 | _clock_ | I guess it depends on what is understood under full production use |
| 13:35.30 | _clock_ | I use qcad on Ronja but don't know if it qualifies as full production use, production use or only use? |
| 13:36.29 | brlcad | _clock_: I meant 3d solid modeling CAD, they probably 'qualify' (whatever that means) but as a 2d system |
| 13:37.04 | _clock_ | qcad is definitely 2D |
| 13:37.33 | _clock_ | but they have those little arrows with numbers |
| 13:37.42 | _clock_ | brl-cad didn't have it last time I checked |
| 13:39.02 | brlcad | still don't have annotations, though been talking about adding them very recently (last week) and might start that up some basic support this/next week. |
| 13:39.27 | _clock_ | brlcad: I would find that very cool |

| 14:04.30 | JucaBlues | thanks |
| 14:04.46 | JucaBlues | relicense into what? |
| 14:05.02 | brlcad | ideally BSD/MIT-style license |
| 14:05.05 | JucaBlues | which are the options for brlcad? |
| 14:05.08 | JucaBlues | ok |
| 14:05.12 | brlcad | as a library that are the most flexible |
| 14:05.27 | JucaBlues | lgpl would be ok? |
| 14:05.43 | brlcad | LGPLv2 would work, LGPLv3 could possibly work down the road, but not guaranteed |
| 14:06.13 | JucaBlues | ok, thanks |
