This CAD suite was originally an in-house tool set at a European semi
house (Atmel, if I recall) and was "released into the wild" some years
back.
Wondering if it has gotten any traction, whether anyone out there has
succeeded in taping out to any foundry with it, any ideas on how much
work developing PDKs might be, and so on. It looks from the docs like
a pretty solid layout / verification suite, which so far is one area that
the open-source EDA community has failed to make any progress on.
