Dear John,

This is a question probably better asked on debian-user mailing list rather 
than debian-project which is used for formal announcements.

Kicad, freecad, mercurial, gmsh are all currently available in Debian 8
(jessie).

Qucs is not available as far as I can see - the upstream project website
has details of a possible maintainer to contact, however.

Copying directly to you - against the normal ettiquette of Debian lists -
because I'm unsure whether you are subscribed to the list.

All the very best,

Andy C.
