The company also employed several other coding and non-coding contributors to FreeCAD and its ecosystem. + +## Ondsel is shutting down. What does it mean? + +The company is getting closed and stopping all contracts with its employees and contractors. It will no longer do any development or maintain either the Lens server or its codebase. + +## What does it mean for FreeCAD? Will its development slow down? + +There is no reason for this to happen. FreeCAD has never been this strong before. The team is doing all the right things to fix some long-standing issues, they have great spirit and the right expertise to tackle the next big challenges. + +The majority of the Ondsel team have been in and around the FreeCAD project for years. We'll find a way to do more FreeCAD development. + +## Will you contribute your changes in Ondsel ES back to FreeCAD? + +There were four changes specific to Ondsel ES as of the last weekly build: + +1. **The Lens addon**. It doesn't make sense to have that as part of FreeCAD now that Lens will go offline. +2. **OpenTheme** enabled by default. This is a 3rd-party project; we do not control it. +3. **Custom preference pack**. We customized FreeCAD defaults to our liking and automatically applied the preference pack when building Ondsel ES. The pack is public. We'll make a pull request if the FreeCAD community wants those defaults. +4. **Simulations in the Assembly workbench**. This is a technical preview of a new feature. We have [already submitted](https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/pull/16414) a pull request to FreeCAD. It's scheduled for code review for v1.1. + +We have already submitted the rest of our changes to FreeCAD, too. Most of them will be part of v1.0. + +## Will you release the source code of the Lens server and the MBD solver? + +We are looking into that. \ No newline at end of file
