Paul
your assumption got me to thinking about open source piping design software. Is there any such thing?
Any software suitable for adaptation to open source?

Linux seems to be doing a good job of quietly smashing Windows' windows. I will probably change over next year; purely for spite.

It would be pleasing to see a similar initiative taken to the overpriced engineering software houses.

Cheers

Steve McKenzie

Syam Tawakkal, this is not a discussion list for people to find cracks of engineering software. Since in both of your messages you have not described any specific problem that you are working on, I assume that you are seeking free software.

The is lots of it (free software) on the internet. I suggest using Google.
