Recently, on the FreeCAD forum, there was a discussion about FreeCAD-LibreCAD integration.

Main points:
-LibreCAD has good 2D blueprints support and DXF support
-FreeCAD can create parametric 3D solids and 2D views, but still has lack of good tools for dimensions and annotations
-Both apps should stay standalone (GPL issue) but we can create communication layer

What is your opinion?
