http://www.eda.ncsu.edu/wiki/FreePDK Now days FreePDK is lisenced under terms and conditions which look like to be not so constraintive for use it foe intrgration. See quotation below: "*The FreePDKTM process design kit is an open-source, Open-Access-based PDK for the 45nm technology node and the Predictive Technology Model <http://www.eas.asu.edu/%7Eptm>. It is distributed under the Apache Open Source License, Version 2.0 <http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0>.* " *Design rules table for FreePDK45:http://www.eda.ncsu.edu/wiki/FreePDK45:RuleDevel <http://www.eda.ncsu.edu/wiki/FreePDK45:RuleDevel>* *source repo is also available for now:svn co https://svn.unity.ncsu.edu/osi/freepdk45/trunk <https://svn.unity.ncsu.edu/osi/freepdk45/trunk> freepdk45/trunk* Could Electric officially support FreePDK now?
