Hi All,

I occasionally need to do some drafting.  About
25 years ago I knew AutoCad somewhat.  Currently,
I need to do some minor landscape architecture.

On research, I am finding four Open Source alternatives:
     FreeCAD
     QCad Community Edition
     Archimedes
     BRL-CAD

Each seems to have it points.

Have you guys used any of these and do you have an
opinion on them?  (It may come down to who has RPMs.)

Many thanks,
-T
