+Lepton EDA (Lepton Electronic Design Automation)
+
+The Lepton EDA suite provides schematic capture, netlisting, bill
+of materials generation, and many other features. It was forked
+from the gEDA/gaf suite in late 2016.
+
+The file format for schematics remains the same, and Lepton EDA
+can be used as a drop-in replacement for geda-gaf, though parallel
+installation is also supported (all programs have been renamed).
+
+Many bugs have been fixed and new features added. It's in active
+development and well supported.
