If I have missed out on any, please let me know. Or, if you have suggestions on how you would like to distribute verilog, vhdl sources, please provide details for the same. Based on these recommendations, we will proceed to package one project source, get it approved, and ship it. We can then follow suit for the other hardware sources. Thanks!

Is it | similar to cvs or clearcase? \-- No. There are differences. I will request Fedora Infrastructure for a project repo (fedorahosted) where I will check-in dgc code, and you can check-in your code changes. Please try DGC first. The code is very old, and I have re-written the build to keep it up-to-date with Fedora releases. You can get the sources using: $ yumdownloader --source dgc To extract the .src..rpm, use: $ rpm2cpio -idv dgc-0.98-3.fc12.src.rpm | cpio -idv The GUI has been temporarily disabled in the code, which is where you come in the picture! There is an old documentation (2002) on the GUI here: http://dgc.sourceforge.net/dgc_tutorial_toc.html The objective would be to write the GUI with GTK+ API. You can refer GTK+ tutorials, for a start (please try): http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk-tutorial/stable/ DGC was written by Oliver Kraus, who is not with Universit?t Erlangen-N?rnberg [1] anymore. The current maintainer of the project is Tobias Dichtl [2]. His line of scientific research is not the same as that of DGC, but, he said he will be adding 'extended burst mode synthesis support' this year.

I highly suggest you to install 'devhelp' package. Its the API browser for GNOME desktop. Its got all documentation related to libbonobo, gtk+, libglade, ibus, gdk etc. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/packages/name/devhelp#Fedora12 Have fun! Aanjhan
