Re: [oc] FPGA size needed for projects ?

[Matts <kivik@firstlinux.net>]

I believe you misunderstood me some. My suggestion was not that you or someone else should sit down and get numbers for me. My suggestion was that the 'template' used to briefly describe the projects have a line added for gate count. I assume that the original project maintainer have theese numbers from their synthesis and can easily add them on the next update. I belive is it just a matter of 'did not think of that' and if the line is in the 'template' the issue is automatically solved, for ongoing projects anyway.
