Also for the name, I was thinking of yet another horrible acronym:

     LCSD: Logic Core Self Description (I refuse to put the word IP core
           into the name anywhere :D). Sounds like LSD...

What about "gateware" instead of "IP core"? It's neutral, descriptive (so people unfamiliar with the term can guess what it means), already used by some people, and sounds OK: "Ethernet gateware", "acceleration gateware", "crypto gateware", "memory controller gateware"...

I think Alessandro has already replied to this but I add my own too.
We want to support devices ranging from constrained to lavish and we
were thinking of providing different sized descriptors for differing
space availability. What is your opinion of such an approach?

We could do something like 64, 32, 16 bit versions of all the parts
of the spec (header, id block, device descriptors, child pointers).

Yes, sounds good.

Best,
Sébastien
