Re: [Zamiacad-devel] VHDL-to-SystemC converter ver2

[valentin T. <val...@gm...>]

Hi,

To help you making first steps in zamia and git, we have created
systemc branch it git and IG2SC.java in the instgrapgh package. Please
find it at SourceForge. In Windows, we use msysgit and are always
ready to help through Google Talk or skype with a fast response. But,
surely you'll need to learn something about git yourself. You commit
locally and guenter grants sourceforge repository write access.

Perhaps, somebody else recommends a good location for your test suite classes.

Best regards,
valentin
