suggested that ACS and ng-spice consider "cross pollination".

For what its worth:

I'm not sure if Al Davis reads this list but recently I had to
make a decision about which simulator to use. I chose ng-spice
in part because it directly supported the "alter" command which
I had used in previous spice decks and did not want to convert
to the ACS method.

Therefore I would suggest that whatever you do it be 100%
spice compatible even if it introduces new and better
ways of doing things,.. we all know the power of backwards
compatibility.
