| - | Even though gaf is very much a part of gEDA, the gEDA name does not necessarily only apply to gaf – tools gathered under the “gEDA” moniker include many other programs. Indeed, gEDA refers to **any** GPL'd EDA tool which decides to associate itself with the gEDA website/mailing list. Important examples of gEDA tools include the layout program [[http://pcb.gpleda.org|PCB]], the Verilog compiler [[http://www.icarus.com/eda/verilog/|Icarus Verilog]], the analog circuit simulator [[http://www.gnucap.org/|gnucap]], and the open-source SPICE simulator [[http://www.ngspice.org/|ngspice]]. Many other gEDA programs also exist. | + | Even though gaf is very much a part of gEDA, the gEDA name does not necessarily only apply to gaf – tools gathered under the “gEDA” moniker include many other programs.

| - | Come to the Free EDA Users Group (Freedog) meeting. These meetings are an informal way to meet some of the gEDA developers and users. The meetings are held in the metro Boston, MA (USA) area. Sometimes they are held at one of the developer's homes, while other times they are held at a local cafe. Meeting times vary, so send an e-mail to the geda-user mailing list for more information. | ||
