* With stable python bindings Topologic will be also available to freecad, I'm also hoping to use it in the future to port some/all of my Homemaker-Topologise blender add-on to python.

So, us mortals just need to be able to use it in an Opensource environment. :) I'll be very interested to follow this and see if I can use it in FreeCAD or Blender as I don't think I will ever think o

There can and should be a common exchange format between software (IFC in the case of the AEC industry?). But that's it, an exchange format. Each program should work in its own format, as each program

if that works. I am planning on testing it with FreeCAD as well. We are also working very hard to make it work with python3 in Windows (without relying on Dynamo or Grasshopper). The next challenge i

The best use could be, for example, FreeCAD + LibreOffice, this mean a probable 3D design + automatic BOM documentation.

I was searching for years an open alternative for DWG and I found that DXF is not completely support in all open source software, for example there is not support in blender out of the box, FreeCAD su

With limited knowledge in python, I can import some modules in the FreeCAD python module. I am trying to understand how to find, 'install', then able to import the topologic in FreeCAD.

Thanks @duncan for the update. Now that OSArch.org exists and projects like FreeCAD and BlenderBIM are solid alternatives for AEC industry, the proposal for LibreDWG to be included in the list of prio

Now that DWG is default supported in FreeCAD I think it really makes sense to test the hell out of it and start pushing development forward. Especially finding out what it takes to get 3D DWG support.
