Hi Actually the guy who runs the company which made RAVEN (eFabless) is here on the mailing list. His name is Mohamed Kassem. And it's a nice marketing slogan "free silicon", but he and I already had plenty of Google hangouts about it. The foundry, which has manufactured RAVEN, is X-Fab, which doesn't provide the actual GDS2 files for the standard cells, only the LEF files, and the analog IP is proprietary. Mohamed will be more than happy to port RAVEN to LibreSilicon, as soon as our PDK is done.

Hello tatzelbrumm!
Well, Tim was on the Free Silicon Conference in Paris this year also - here is the wiki page with background infos

Afterwards, Edmund from Vienna tried to buy a sample for his empty wall in the office :-)
There should be a video recording of the talk somewhere - please use the Search Engine of your choice to look for it.
