Hello Juergen:

Hello Juergen:

This is Jean Thilmany, an editor at Design World Magazine here in the United States. I'm writing an article for the magazine about the development of open-source 3D CAD. I was wondering if I could ask you some questions about FreeCAD.

Namely, how you came to be involved in the project?

What you do as a developer?

Why are there so few 3D open-source CAD applications?

Why are there no parametric 3D open source CAD applications do you think?

What's the importance of open source software?

How does open-source help users and developers?

What do you use FreeCAD for?

Why do you like it?

As I think you're in Brazil, I wonder if you could (if you wish to) answer these by email within the next few weeks, before the end of April?

Thank you so very much and please ask me any questions you might have.

Best, Jean
