Subject: [oc] data base for ASIC/FPGA develpers
I did not think that the tool will generate (or even parse) Verilog files. I though mainly about synchronization between designers, verification team and software team. The central point of the tool is generating of datasheet(s)
I do not throw away the idea of actually parsing Verilog files and looking for some tags, but i think that DocBook already does this. I guess it is possible in the future to integrate the engines. Meanwhile I want to limit the scope of the problem and focus the efforts in solving the main problem - replacing of the Access data base.
