8. FUDConBrussels 2007 - chitlesh@fedoraproject.org Fedora Electronic Lab (FEL) Fedora Electronic Lab (FEL) is an opensource electronic design and simulation platform for electronics engineering. What does it mean to: Users. Developers. the EDA (Electronic Design Automation) Community.

9. FUDConBrussels 2007 - chitlesh@fedoraproject.org FEL for the Users Fedora Electronic Lab is free. No licenses required. No kernel patches are required. Electronic tools: Circuit design and simulation. PCB design. ASIC design (HDL, synthesis, layout). Embedded and microcontroller design. CAD tools/utilities. Project management tools.

10. FUDConBrussels 2007 - chitlesh@fedoraproject.org FEL to Developers FEL is engaged into the development of some of the tools: Pharosc, gnusim8085, dgc,... FEL provides feedback to developers: enhancements, bug reports,... FEL provides a community for tool developers: guidance to unify tools, to use standards,... FEL helps to promote existing tools.

11. FUDConBrussels 2007 - chitlesh@fedoraproject.org FEL to the Community FEL provides a clear roadmap to promote opensource: EDA software, EDA data formats, hardware communities (openmoko,...), EDA developers. FEL supports innovation and development and helps to foster a community around the opensource EDA community.

17. FEL: Why “F” as Fedora? Project sponsored by Fedora Project. Fedora Project provides existing infrastructure: marketing (livedvd), build system and mirror, package reviews, hosting facilities, legal advices, artwork and web designers,... FEL packages existing open source software and provides a final product (DVD). It is really "open" electronic lab: works with other Linux distributions.
