Role of RS2 and RapidWright #347

Xilinx/Chris has recently released RapidWright. Where does RS2 fit into this? Does it have a future or does RapidWright supplant it?

DallonTG commented 6 years ago

I think where RS2 fits into this is still uncertain at this time. RapidWright definitely has some advantages (can work directly with DCPs, etc.), but there may be some applications where RS2 is easier to use than RapidWright. We'll have to spend some more time looking at and working with RapidWright to really know though; @nelsobe is planning to do this when he gets some time.
