29 January 2025 in Brussels. Probably the next good candidate for a 1.0 release event as well. Latest blog has them down to four release blockers, though that number can certainly drift back up as well.

Rather than following things that don’t work well lol like SOLIDWORKS, freeCAD could use some feedback on how things function in UGNX. Where SOLIDWORKS is barely able to handle opening a full model of a mouse assembly, NX is capable of opening a fully featured airplane model.

Another example, the extrude feature in SOLIDWORKS is different than the cut tool. In NX things are simpler, you can either create a cut or an extrusion all in one feature. That’s the level of stupidity in SOLIDWORKS that freeCAD should look at NX to avoid.

A much more important thing is figuring out the topology problem. Eliminate that
