Here is where I am on the dxf importing so far. A few weeks ago I checked the dxf libraries that are already out there (dime, Qcad (dxflib), blender were specifically mentioned in the proposal) and found all are GPL'd. After a discussion with Jon about licensing I became more aware of the possibility of releasing under several licenses. So I decided to write a dxf importing code using STL containers to hold the various levels of data. I hope that it will be something others can reuse.

So you will write yor own library from scratch?

BTW what is libwmf?

A library written specifically for opening Mircosoft Word documents, which contain clipart in this file format.
