Walter, Thanks for sending this to the list. Here are some of my observations. 1) In general, I noticed that you removed the references to HSPICE-RF. However, at the final stages we should also remove references to HSPICE as well, since this specification was planned to be a stand alone IBIS-Interconnect specification, independent of HSPICE... 2) pg. 16. "Parameters and Expressions section, 2nd bullet: I think this should be retained in the document, because this describes how parameters are scoped with subcircuits... 3) pg. 16. "Parameters and Expressions section, 3rd bullet: I think this should be retained in the document, because we will have .param statements, and we need to spell out the rules about it... 4) pg. 26. Parameter section. I think we should keep the parameter syntax for subcircuit definitions. This allows the instantiation of the same subcircuit with different parameters. I don't think that could be achieved any other way. 5) pg. 29 on the bottom, "Functions" and following line should be deleted (since we do not support function definitions, or do we?). 6) pg. 35 Example in 2nd and 3rd paragraphs are irrelevant for our purpose, should be deleted or replaced with other examples. 4th paragraph doesn't apply (Monte Carlo analysis). 7) pg. 37 on the bottom refers to the deleted examples above... 8) pg. 38 we may want to retain the PARHIER option rules... That's it for now.
