Zohir,

As you know, DWG is a proprietary format with a closed specification, it's hard to hack around in that format.
The Open Design alliance is just a name, nothing is open there and even if we get a license we 
are not allowed to distribute any of the libraries and code as they are not compatible with GPL.

Additionally, we currently feel that libdwg isn't stable enough to read in all modern AutoCAD formats reliably
without crashing LibreCAD. May be later?
