We have released the second Release Candidate for #FreeCAD version 1.1 - please download and test the version with your files and workflows. If there are any issues, report them on GitHub. We want to make sure 1.1 is a stable improvement! github.com/FreeCAD/Free... #CAD #CAM #OpenSource #FOSS

No we’re not. If you choose to wear a dunce hat in public, I am going to treat you like one.
