As of a couple of years ago, IBIS for Gnucap was nearly complete (that's IBIS-3), but as of now it is frozen in that state because there are no free layout programs that support Gnucap. The biggest need is for a path from layout to something Gnucap can read. So, I am asking for help ....... I am looking for a volunteer to write a Gnucap "language plugin" that will read and write Kicad files. These language plugins will become part of a general translation package, which ultimately will provide other translations too. gEDA and Eagle are also high priority. When they are done, we will have a means of migrating files between systems. If someone steps up to do this, I will revive the Gnucap IBIS code, which will provide the capability for full SI simulation.
