Happy New Year!
Let me apologize in advance to anyone, whom jumped in right away and
started playing with PyBERT v2.0.0. As you no doubt discovered on your own,
its IBIS-AMI model support is, essentially, useless. I'm very sorry for any
wasted time I cost you.
I have released PyBERT v2.0.1, which is working w/ 4 64-bit models, under
Ubuntu 16.04LTS. Admittedly, still not very thorough testing, but I will
continue to expose it to additional IBIS-AMI models, as they become
available to me. And, I will continue to address your failure reports in as
timely a manner possible. Speaking of which...
A HUGE "Thank you!" to those of you, whom jumped in immediately and
contacted me with models for test, as well as failure reports. It's prompt
active community involvement like that, I believe, which will ultimately
make this tool useful to us all. Thanks, again, for that. :)
Finally, as interest in PyBERT seems to be "rounding the knee", I thought I
should stop spamming the si-list and ibis-macro lists with PyBERT
announcements and discussions. So, I've created a new list for these
purposes: <pybert@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>. You can subscribe to this new list, by
sending a message with the word "subscribe" in the Subject field to: <
pybert-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>.
I look forward to working with all of you to improve PyBERT in 2017.
See you on the list. :)
Best wishes for a healthy, happy, and prosperous year to you and yours,

P.S. - I will be attending DesignCon this year, and can generally be found
in the Hyatt lobby bar for an hour or so, after the show floor closes. I'd
be happy to discuss PyBERT (or, anything else) with you, then. In case
we've never met, and you don't know what I look like, here's my LinkedIn
profile:

P.P.S. - In case anyone's interested, I'll be giving a talk at DesignCon,
entitled "Making data sheet derived IBIS-AMI models a reality," which
attempts to build upon the work of Eugene Lim and Donald Telian, by
offering a public domain, open source IBIS-AMI model creation
infrastructure, which can be used to implement their ideas regarding
datasheet derived IBIS-AMI models. This infrastructure was first announced
at last year's Open IBIS Summit, Santa Clara, and you can learn more about
it, here:

To learn more about the work of Lim and Telian, see their delivered paper
from last year's DesignCon archives:
