For the hardware IDE, I'm really in fear that I'll have a micromanagement fit. I know what I want and how I want the program to work. How hard is it to get random volunteers to do this, rather than injecting their own ideas into it? Plus, what I'm asking for could be unreasonable. This really should be targeted to hardware engineers. I'm this weird hybrid hardware/software guy, so what I want may be strange to both hardware and software people. Most stuff I don't care how other people do it. But this is a tool that I want to use to design a whole chip. So in some ways, this is as much as a custom tool for Tim to design OGA as it is for anyone to design any chip hierarchically. That means that I want to have precise control over how the UI works, how it exports/imports code, and even what language it's written in. I also have a bit of a prototype, although I've changed my mind about several aspects of that. If I could find the time to get HIDE up to some minimum point, then I would feel less concerned, because people will tend to follow the lead. -- Timothy Normand Miller http://www.cse.ohio-state.edu/~millerti Open Graphics Project _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
