[Xcircuit-dev] Cadence DFII to XCircuit translator

I was wondering if anyone has attempted a Cadence DFII to XCircuit 
schematic translator. From a cursory glance, it seems rather easy to 
do. Here are the steps for the translation:

1. dump the DFII schematic using dbWriteSkill
2. read this schematic in a Skill/TCL program and emit XCircuit TCL
3. Load this XCircuit TCL script into XCircuit.

If anyone can find faults in this approach, I would like to hear about 
it.

Regards,
Satya
