Actually there were two, quite lengthy discussions about this program:
http://news.lugnet.com/cad/?n=9808
and
http://news.lugnet.com/cad/?n=9886
I'm glad to see that they finally released a public beta. I am disappointed
that the program requires an internet connection to download the pieces and then
deletes them when you exit. I wanted to see the new LXF format. Also, I lothe
programs that force full screen mode. There's also the usual gripe about exe
vs. zip installation, but I'll never win that one.
On the positive side, I like the color selection and the snap to exsting pieces
features. This program is looking good and I'm looking forward to the full
release.
