Is this forum too restrictive?

I assume this is the post being referenced.

These:

@devbisme

• DeepPCB has a KiCad connection. To wit: “All our solved boards are Design Rules Checked (DRC clean) and fully compatible with KiCad.”
• If DeepPCB has an explicit KiCad connection, then the best place to find somebody that has experience using it may actually be the KiCad forum.

were never mentioned by the OP.

@devbisme

If the KiCad community isn’t aware of DeepPCB, it’s unlikely someone will write a PCBNEW plugin to make it easy to use with KiCad. Then we’re stuck with FreeRouting. (God knows we have enough posts about FreeRouting.)

Quite possibly the closer of the post is unfamiliar with DeepPCB, but in fairness to him, it is not his responsibility to confirm the quality of the OPs thread.The OP should be prepared to justify their posting.

“Is this forum too restrictive?” In this case, no.

Next time DeepPCB is mentioned in a thread, after this posting by you, @devbisme, the thread will probably stay open. Some are now aware of DeepPCB, thanks for the information.
