Does the gnucap solver support everything that we need, so it can replace the Qucs solver, or is it just supposed to be an option? Right now, I'm only interestested in convergence, not so much in speed. But do you know if convergence is also better in gnucap? > Also I would also really be wanting to see how these changes would > impact my integration of the Qucs solvers with Octave, so if we can keep > anything related to this quite firmly on a feature branch or fork until > everyone agrees to merge anything I would really appreciate it. Yes, we should really do that. Sören |
