I was waiting for my own repost to the list to answer so that it would not get lost, I just didn't see the message.

Qucs files is detailed in it's own help screen, with all details.

A very simple way of porting a schematic from Kicad to Qucs would be to write a separeate script to read a .sch from kicad and generate a qucs schematic file. Both are ascii...

In EESchema their is a export netlist option. One output option is SPICE , 
ORCAD PCB2, CAD STAR, and ADD PLUGIN.
If the other options didn't export to QUCS then a plugin would be logical right?

what is that format? what does that format do?

The only problem with merging kicad and QUCS is that the
 latter is written in QT but the former uses Wxwidgets
 libraries. If Kicad could be ported to QT it would also be
 aligned with Ktechlab which is also written in QT. All three
 are written in C++, but the team doing the porting would
 have to have extensive knowledge of the required libraries.
The real issue there is that there is a LOT of duplicated work. The strength of Qucs is in the part that is duplicated.
IMHO, this would be the wrong way to go. Imagine if in order to use FreeRoute, all kicad would have had to be ported to Java :(

NO. The simple and practical way is just to read and write files in GUCS format. Specially that such files are very well documented.
