  • Next message: Kurt Baty: "user input meetings"

    Precedence: bulk

    I propose that we do "at least" two more user input data
    collections for the IEEE 1364-2005 standard.

    It was proposed at the IEEE 1364-2005 user input meeting
    at DAC that we might collect user input at the Synopsys
    user group (SNUG) conference in Boston, Synopsys people
    at the DAC meeting agreed that this would be okay.
    Since I am on the SNUG technical committee, after the
    IEEE meeting at DAC, I called Joanne Wegener (SNUG Boston
    2003 Conference Manager) who coordinates SNUG conference,
    and we will get part of the ballroom for lunch on the main
    day. Attendees can have an undisturbed lunch or
    be pestered for user input on the future of Verilog.

    One week later the Cadence users group (ICU) is meeting
    in New Hampshire. I think we could get permission to
    gather data at the Cadence users conference also.

    http://www.cadenceusers.org/

    Synopsys agreed to allow other non-SNUG attendees to come to
    this data gathering. Cadence might be willing to do the same.

    I think this will collect good user data in a very fare fashion.
    The advantage is that we will have this done by September 17
    and collect input from perhaps several hundred interested users
    including ASIC, FPGA, board and system users and at the Cadence
    users group, analog users as well.

    Two possible letters

    One to John Cooley at ESNUG and after we get all the permissions and times:

    John, could you please insert into ESNUG the following announcement:

    The IEEE 1364-2005 Verilog Standards Committee's working group
    is collecting user input on user needs for the for the next
    generation of the Verilog language. We have arranged for two
    user input meetings locations. At SNUG in Boston [date, time].
    As well as at the Cadence users (ICU) Conference in Manchester,
    New Hampshire [date, time].

    To SNUG or ICU attendees:
    The IEEE 1364-2005 Verilog Standards Committee's working group
    is collecting user input on user needs for the for the next
    generation of the Verilog language. We will be collecting user
    input at your conference [date, time] Please attend and give
    us the feedback we need to advance the next generation of
    the verilog language.

    feedback everone?
