	Possible general CAD topics (should be a seperate group):

	Database design
	Mechanical CAD
	Electronic CAD (PCB layout, simulation, etc.)
	solid modeling
	surface modelling

	Possible CAD graphics topics (can done as comp.graphics.cad):

	Proprietary vs. standard graphics interfaces
	Usage of windowing systems and user interface languages
	Performance characterization

	We should probably call for discussion in news.groups.
