Re: IBIS 3.0 and legal questions

To all:

A lot of hard work has gone into creating the v3.0 spec. A lot
of 'bad/corrupt' models can easily find their way into the
public domain if not parsed properly thru the v3.0 parser(..which
is coming soon..).

I personally think that the IBIS community should not encourage
IBISv3.0 model distribution unless the v3.0 parser is out/debugged
and approved.

If you must create a v3.0 model, do it and contain it between you
and your EDA vendor. Do not pass this to your customer or to
the public yet....An ASCII file without properly parsed will do
more harm than good.
