Sorry for not being of much help here.. I am reading the forums here and there, and from time to time give my 2 cents.
Thank you for your opinion.
I am really not warm with the handling of FreeCAD.. I downloaded it numerous times.. probably already in v0.14..long time ago.. and I until now always failed to get used to it.. so testing a WB !!
Same for Blender/BlenderBIM..
I also spent some time lazy with FreeCAD but version 0.19 surprised me. Please give it a try, and try again ...
I feel these are the tools for OpenSource CAD. they need to be complementary.. and Gantt/ProjectMangement Tools can be good for both..so something both can handle would be perfect.
But only Yorick and Moult (and some others here and on OSArch) can help you now..
BlenderBIM 2.0 (or whatever the rewritten code is named) is agnostic to Blender and FreeCAD..so should be the way to go.
At some time, it will have to get a new name.. delivered from the Blender brand..
This WB was an attempt to learn more about FreeCAD and IFC, and is extremely experimental. The discussion about something more appropriate for the 2 software is just beginning in
https://community.osarch.org/discussion ... gineers/p2 (and I hope to be able to make my small contribution with what little I know
)
Do not know if FreeCAD has some PLM, ERP Workbenches in sight.. probably.
I don't know if there is any initiative in this regard.
I believe the naming topology inside FreeCAD is still not solved (despite Realthunder proposal). The FreeCAD File system/standard is going to be determinant then also for your efforts
So back to what I still do not understand well: the graph/semantic/ontology stuff with its database and editor apps..
I'm not a software engineer, I'm just an old civil engineer learning, so forgive me if these concepts are 'aliens' to me.
Cheers
