Validation suite for Verilog-AMS

Hi,

Would there by interest in setting up a validation-suite for Verilog-AMS?

The idea is that a suite of tests for every Verilog-AMS language construct 
is made that should result in output that is verifyable against a 
benchmark. A specific subset of this suite should be applicable to the 
Verilog-A analog language subset. With a simple driver for 

The driver for this idea is any Verilog-A or Verilog-AMS model that is 
developed on a validated simulator has identical behaviour on any other 
validated simulator. A reason for Accellera in supporting and driving this 
would be in increasing the proliferation of Verilog-AMS in as many 
simulators as possible thereby ensuring this standard language indeed 
becoming a standard.

The whole subset can be made largely simulator independent by building up 
the test suite also from Verilog-A tests, making the suite self-contained 
and less dependent on the actual ways of integrating Verilog-A in each of 
the simulators.

Maybe we can discuss this in one of the upcoming teleconferences - 
although I've completely lost track of the dates, and I won't be available 
for the coming three weeks.

Regards,
Marq
