Oh, AutoDesk...you have such a way with words. Honestly, I would rather learn to design in OpenSCAD than send AutoDesk a single penny.

I also started using it around that time. And I agree with everything you said except the part where said it's improved dramatically. It's improved, yes, but I would call those improvements minimal, not dramatic, especially considering it's taken five years to accomplish them.

I don't know, I think the tree dependency fix in 0.2 was pretty huge. The rest of the stuff I can pretty much take or leave, including all the new toolbar icons which wasted who knows how many man-hours that probably could have been better spent elsewhere... But not having all my parts bork themselves because god forbid I modified a feature at the top of the tree rather than the bottom made using FreeCAD go from exhausting to use to actually properly functional -- at least for me.
