why FNF it is not in XML anymore ?

I do not care about how it is or what it is supposed to do, but I if
it is XML there much more possibilities to get early adopters of any
new file format....

Right now, custom ASCII is easier for me to handle. But at some point, I'll add an XML reader and writer.

I started to define the format for FNF: the future netlist format of
Confluence and InFormal.

FNF is a flat netlist that retains hierarchical scoping.  The netlist is
a directed graph of primitive RTL operations, called cells. Some basics:
  - All cells have 0 or 1 outputs.
  - All cells operate on bit vectors.

The syntax definition is located here:

  http://www.confluent.org/wiki/doku.php?id=fnf:main

(Steve, hopefully this aligns with Icarus synthesis, when you move it
from bits to vectors.)

Shortly I will release an FNF generator for Icarus, followed by a
Verilog, VHDL, C, and NuSMV writer.

Confluence Users, this should enable the following at some point in the
future:
  - Hierarchical HDL.
  - 4-state C simulation models (01XZ), with VCD on all internals.
  - Back annotation.

All comments are welcome.
