Someone is doing an auxilliary mesaurement board for Ronja and decided to try out Kicad. He said he was able to do the development cycle of a simple board in 5 minutes. And that he wants to do it in Kicad because it's easy and has a feeling that everything works there, and the required parts are in the library. I told him Kicad is OK on Ronja because it's GPL as well. So he'll do it in Kicad instead of gEDA.
