What are important factors when selecting Intellectual Property?

First of all I want to appologise if this is a bit off topic, but I think the people with the best expertise will be in this group.

I'm currently doing some research into Intellectual Property for SoC designs and just wanted to get a feal for the things that are important to people who actually purcahse/use IP. For example support from the vendor after sale seems to be important from people I have already spoken to.

I'm also interested in things that you think are missing from IP that would help integrate that IP into a design i.e. better test information, quality of the design etc.

Any comments on this would be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards

Kemal

The top of my list would be a clean design. In particular, the interface to your block of logic.

Correctness is important, and also clear and correct documentation. (You would think this was implied, but...)
