I have recently decided to migrate my pcb applications from geda to kicad. Reasons: the maturity of kicad has reached a level comparable to that of geda, and kicad is much more credible as an upstream source with continuity in providing stable packages (although there is much development activity in upstream gschem, this does only rarely percolate into a new stable release; pcb is less active, and there has been a recent fork with an all but certain outlook on decently spaced delivery of stable future packages.
Should Mageia aim at maintaining both geda and kicad in the long run? Given the investment in existing pcb user projects, and the effort and time needed for potential migration, there is need for careful planning; for instance, if support for a package is intended to be dis-continued, that should not happen suddenly, the present release of that package should be carried - at least - into Mageia7. Opinions?
