> I'm a C programmer looking for a good project; I'm on board. If you are interested in ctags for vhdl (not a big project), you can write down how the ctags would look for a vhdl unit and I can implement the writer part. That opens many paths for reader tools.
I think there isn't any good open-source IDE for vhdl (and verilog). Maybe an editor like geany could be improved (write plugin/extensions for vhdl). And if you aren't afraid by Ada, I can provide many ideas...
