Hello Mukund,

Since herb is trying to be a better Alliance, I wish to propose the new features

 * support for Liberty file format
http://www.opensourceliberty.org/
 * support for Synopsys Design Constraint format
 * improved reports : report_timing, report_cells, report_area

These will create easy path for new users and interoperability. Also
it will help to maintain new standard cells libraries.
Xcircuit(+magic) and ngspice/gnucap are being enhanced in that
direction. It would be nice to have users' characterized cells being
used in herb.

thank you,
chitlesh
