[Uaflug] FYI: Fedora 8 to feature Electronics Lab

[Jeff Spaleta]

Good Afternoon,
There is a new feature slated to be ready by Fedora 8 that EE's and
CS's might be interested taking a look at.

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/FedoraElectronicLab

The Fedora's Electronic Laboratory includes design tools for
    * Analog/Digital Simulation
    * Spice Simulation
    * Hardware Development (VHDL,Verilog)- Modeling, Designing,
Simulation, Synthesis, Verification and Documentation
    * VLSI (layout, synthesis, Finite State Machines...)
    * Micro Controller (µC) Programming
    * Embedded Systems Development

This will be available in the Fedora repository as a group definition
at some point leading up to the F8 release. Would anyone be interested
in helping to test this software collection if installation or livecd
media became available for the Fedora Electronics Lab setup?
