Subject: ( ESNUG 378 #1 ) Thanks For DC 2001.08 Presto/Tcl/DW/Verilog Alert

> I want to do a rant about the new 2001.08 ver of DC.  We've switched over

> and flattening after compiles, Presto issues, and illegal Verilog being
> written out.  Ugh.  I hate debugging new versions, and I think we'll wait

Dear John,

Please thank Gregg for his advisary on DC 2001.08.  We were thinking of
switching, but his letter has convinced us to wait for the SP1.

FYI, John,

DC 2001.08-SP1 was released for Sun/HP, but not for Linux.  Insiders say
that the Linux release is going to be released mid-November.
