yet another layout editor

Hi For quite some time I'm working on a new IC layout editor. I've started this as a home project and it looks now that some help and support can be quite handy.

Here are some details about the project:

Written in C++, using wxWidgets and openGL.
> Developed on Linux, compiles for RedHat, Fedora core, SuSE, 32 and 64 bit

platforms.

Editor is using its own (simple enough) scripting language and layout format.
> Undo with unlimited depth, session logs, GDS import, etc.
> The main focus was on the speed and flexibility
> Some basic logical operations (cut, merge) already implemented.
> Some documentation is available as well

There is much more to say - let's stop here, but I will be quite happy to answer further questions. If somebody is really interested, e-mail me directly. Project is in early alpha stage, but stable enough for testing. It is not publicly hosted yet, so any ideas and suggestions will be appreciated.

The main idea is to target small or middle fabless design companies, giving them the possibility to switch quickly between fabs and processes. Actually I'm still wondering about the license, but if it is not entirely public, maybe up to $2K. It's just an editor for the moment.
