Yes, but I think that we should maintain compatibility with spice
interface to devices. There are may devices that are written with a
spice-like interface. Otherwise we can rewrite the devices code too, but
maintaning netlist compatibility with spice,pspice and HSPICE.

Can you make a list of the docs you think are a must. I will put them on
the web site. As soon as the things a re a little stabilized on th web and
as soon as a version of ng-spice-rework can  be released, we can publish
it on freshmeat and sunsite, what do you think ?
