    Huge congrats to the team and my condolences on the loss.

    FreeCAD is a huge part of my engineering toolkit and your work is greatly appreciated.

    I expect that the 1.0 will be in the Debian repos by about 2026 and I’m looking forward to it. Stable distros be stable distros. :-p

    As much as we’re delighted to present you this new version, we are also sad to announce that our friend and prolific FreeCAD developer bgbsww has passed away a few weeks before this release came out. He was one of the main architects of the topological naming fixing effort, wrote a lot of additional code and tests, and became FreeCAD’s TNP specialist. He also helped virtually all other developers out to adapt to the new algorithm. This release is dedicated to him.

    😥
