Not unless we are paid handsomely.  Of course I speak only for myself
here; if somebody wants to put in all that work for free, they are
welcome to do so!

If you can get that to happen, wonderful!  The code is GPLed, and is
available for any and all to do what they want with it!

Quantian is the most well-known Live CD with  gEDA pre-installed:

The version on the disk is getting a little old, however.  A quick
Google search turns up others too.
