[edit] fisrt talk

IntelliCAD is an important piece of software in the open source software category. We were surprised that there was nothing about it in the english Wikipedia, even though it is mentioned in articles about .dwg. Because we resell ZwCAD, which is an IntelliCAD-implementation, we would like to let people know what IntelliCAD is. In this article we mention not only ZwCAD, to make it neutral and informative. We translated it from the dutch wikipedia.

Thanks for not deleting it!

What is meant by 'open source software' here? A quick glance at the IntelliCAD website does not reveal anything suggesting this, and the 'download IntelliCAD' link doesn't seem to work... -- StevenDH (talk) 14:07, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

I don't see any indication that IntelliCAD is really open source, except by PR material that shows that the makers of the software don't understand the meaning of open source. NullPointerException (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 15:13, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

Some more digging brought up this document, which plainly says "IntelliCAD is not open source". Updating this article, even it's gonna be removed soon it need not create confusion. -- StevenDH (talk) 13:22, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
