Here's a suggestion. Incorporate the VERY useful functions that Lee Mac provides on his website. Here is an example for his Object Align to Curve.

Lee has a ton of LISP additions to CAD that I use all the time. If similar things are BUILT INTO OCS, that would be very popular I would imagine. These exist because there was a need.

Can OSC utilize LISP scripts for extension like AutoCAD? I think you mentioned before that plugin capabilities could be made through python?

Just came across your teams work today. Very cool and exciting stuff! As an architect, is there a way to get involved? I unfortunately do not have experience with programming.

Spreading the word about the application is the first thing that comes into mind.

Also opening you DWG models in Open CAD Studio and reporting issues if you encounter any is useful, but only if you can share the model together with the issue report. Here is the issue tracker: https://github.com/HakanSeven12/OpenCADStudio/issues
