    With OpenAccess gaining so much momentum this year, members of this
    list may want to look into a new, free solution for creating universal
    OpenAccess PCells. Using PyCell Studio, you can write a PCell library
    once, and it will work with full parameterization in all OpenAccess
    based tools.

    PyCell Studio includes everything you need to author OpenAccess PCells:

    * New API designed to build design-rule-correct-by-construction
    layout with advanced processes
    * Modern Python IDE (Integrated Development Environment)
    * Graphical layout viewer with interactive design rule checker

    PyCell Studio is a stand-alone environment for PCell design. This means
    you do not need access to a layout editor or DRC tool to create
    universal OpenAccess PCells. PyCell Studio has everything you need, and
    you can download it free from http://www.ciranova.com.

    If you are starting to see more frequent design rule changes in your
    target processes, you may want to explore how PyCell Studio creates
    design-rule-correct-by-construction layout. To download PyCell Studio
    for 32- or 64-bit Linux, documentation or updates, please visit the
    CiraNova web site at http://www.ciranova.com.
