[PCB_FORUM] Re: ICU2004: SKILL SIG, OpenSKILL Initiative

Guess what happens when you combine Perl,Tcl/Tk and Skill?

You can write applications that Cadence 
a) never will implement 
b) will not implement because there are not enough resources
c) just hasn't thought of yet

Possibilities are endless. See image below. ICU attendies will find the 
source code for WinOS and Linux on the ICU 2004 Conference CD.

George,

You forgot the most important thing... you DON'T need SKILL. If you have a
perl developer, he can do incredible things with the tool. Want an
advocate? Look up Devin Barret (spelling might be wrong). He's done
incredible things with perl, tkl, TK, whatever, outside of SKILL. Sure,
SKILL works, but perl, especially, is incredible with Allegro. Now, is
that open source enough? Any perl developers out there that want to
contribute?

Just a thought... back to my board.
