CERN, a long-time friend of Open Source, has made several contributions over the years to KiCad (“KEE-kad”), an open-source EDA (Electronic Design Automation) package widely used in the hobbyist and professional electronics communities. 
It has become so widely used that users can now submit KiCad design files directly to various electronics manufacturers (instead of the traditional step of converting layouts to Gerber files).
