- dbcurtis 9y agoSo I've been following FreeCAD since it started. Even tried to get my head around the code base at one point, but the hacking guide was mostly nonexistent in those days, so I moved on to projects that did not skip that very important step. Just to put a stake in the ground, when did FreeCAD start? When did 3.0 come out, along with the announced end-of-life date for 2.7?
- xrange 9y agoWikipedia says that the first release of FreeCAD was in 2002: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FreeCAD https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FreeCAD ...Python 3.0 was released in 2008: https://www.python.org/download/releases/3.0/ https://www.python.org/download/releases/3.0/ ...It looks like the port of FreeCAD to Python 3 stared in 2015: https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=12534 https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=12534
