A few days ago, Autodesk has
or user posts
who are similarly critical of this move.
Rest in Peace, EAGLE. I hope Autodesk gets what they deserve: A new
influx of migrations away from EAGLE into the direction of Open Source
EDA software like KiCAD.
In fact, the more I think about it, I'm actually very much inclined to
work on good FOSS migration tools / converters - not only for my own
use, but to help more people move away from EAGLE. It's not that I
don't have enough projects at my hand already, but at least I'm
motivated to do something about this betrayal by Autodesk. Let's see
what (if any) will come out of this.
So let's see it that way: What Autodesk is doing is raising the level
off pain of using EAGLE so high that more people will use and contribute
FOSS EDA software. And that is actually a good thing!
