GNUduino is an Arduino board (Arduino Single-Sided Serial Board Version 3) redrawn using gEDA. GNUduino functions same as that of an Arduino board (It’s just a clone of Arduino ).
When I saw the existing Arduino boards, I felt there is still a freedom missing. The existing Arduino boards are designed using a proprietary CAD tool. But GNUduino is free from those. It is designed using a complete free Schematic and PCB CAD tool named gEDA. This is my first Open Hardware project.
I would like to say special thanks to Pramode Sir for suggesting this name for the board.
You can download the schematic and PCB layout files from the below link

Nice! Why did you choose gEDA instead of KiCAD?
@Fabio Varesano :
No special reasons! I tried to use KiCAD but I felt gEDA more easier
Ok.. I should give gEDA a try.. I’m also into homebrew PCBs making.. see http://www.varesano.net/blog/fabio/homebrew-diy-breakout-board-adxl345-accelerometer-first-process-try-tested-arduino-proces for example. I’ll keep an eye on you blog!
