“Last week I wrote about Ares and Draftsight, and how
they where close to go full comercial (Ares only, Draftsight will
be free as Mac and Win released versions), so this is it….

“So, since 18 Set., what happened here? Let’s go back a few
days, and:

“22 September – I found out that Draftsight for MAC was
available for download

“28 September – After reporting a bug for ARES, I received an
email from Graebert, that says “BTW: We have released a final
version of ARES Commander on Linux yesterday evening.”.

“So this last 2 days I’ve been using final version of ARES, so
now I’m capable of write something more about than before.

– Interface is really polished, very nice and modern icons
– It has a built in table creator (really usefull)”
