Hi gEDA,

I'm a part-time developer of kicad and a part-time pcb designer.  My most
recent project has a lot of duplicated circuitry in a three-level hierarchy,
something which kicad does not support very well.  Kicad allows a hierarchy,
but it does not allow different component references on different instances
of the same schematic. e.g. the hierarchy is something like this
      A
   B    B
C  C  C  C
where each of the different C sheets originates from the same file etc.

I've spent the last two weeks trying to add this feature, but it is not easy
:(  does g-EDA already have this feature?  I'll convert my schematics, if
so.  I also like that there is more developer chatter on the gEDA list as
opposed to the kicad list - gives me more confidence.  Kicad is easier to
use, though, and builds on windows... I wish that we could combine forces :)

thanks a bunch,
Tim
