I am not volunteering at the moment but maybe I could someday. - Long ago I used to write 2d and 3d geometry translators for DXF files. - I am good at math. - I have contributed to gdal (some changes to the Java bindings). - I used to be a C++ developer.
In order to do this I would need to learn a lot about which parts of gdal need to be touched and I'd need modern specs for the DXF format. I also would need someone to chime in on how big a job this is. If qGis had a reference implementation of code that would simplify things a lot. Finally I'd need the free time to work on this which I just don't have at the moment. Maybe in the winter.
