We've been distributing an entirely new system, the "Oct Tools".
This consists mainly of a cad database, oct, a "view editor", vem,
and a large number of support tools including extractors, simulators,
a compactor, and logic tools (espresso, mis).  More layout tools are
under development and should go out on a future oct tools release.

The oct/vem framework is oriented towards symbolic design and is very
flexible.  Application tools such as placers, routers, simulators,
and so forth can run as Remote Procedure Call clients of the editor,
or can use the database directly as standalone programs.

To get a copy, I believe that you can contact:

	Cindy Manly
	EECS/ERL Industrial Support Office
	University of California
	Berkeley, Ca.   94720

	(415) 643-6687

And ask about the "Oct Tools" tape.
