gEDA is maintained, but lepton is improving the foundations in a =
direction that the gEDA maintainers are not interested in pursuing.

Symbols and schematics remain compatible. I=E2=80=99ve lately been =

lepton, like gEDA originally, has no layout component. It has returned =

without favoring any one in particular. If you like pcb, you may use it =
with lepton.
