Subject: 3 Users Worried This Will Kill Off Specman "e"

>  Cadence announced it's buying Verisity for $285 million in cash.
>
>  As an EDA user, do you think this is good news or bad news?  Why?


    Good for Cadence, unpredictable for Verisity.

    Bad.  "e" was a good language for testbenches, seems like this will be
    the end of "e".  Will System Verilog be able to replace "e" as a
    verification language?

    Bad.  Vera will now get a chance to surpass Specman.  :-)
