Hello! For a long time my lab purchased the lower-cost ISE Base-X kit, which was recently discontinued and its functionality was rolled into WebPack (which is available for free!) Base-X always seemed to contain support for the two smallest of Xilinx's high-end devices. The latest WebPack, however, does not contain support for the V5s. Is there a plan to have V5 support in WebPack in the future?
I know the standard Xilinx line on this is "If you're doing high-end development, ISE tools are not going to be a big part of your cost" but in our environment where we have a bunch of students doing development on prototype boards, the license costs can add up quickly.
Thanks, ...Eric
