Okay, here are my comments:

damn this thing is slow... =\

It seems to be making excessive X11 calls, xosview is showing lots of
red... It even eats plenty of CPU while not simulating! =\

The oscilloscope is more like a chart recorder... and should probably be
renamed as such.

You really should merge in my conversion of the probe data classes to
STL... (my old fork before the SF project was established...)

The variable resistor, while a distinct type of part, my father's stereo
has one, is really equivalent to a regular pot with one of the leads
shorted. =P

Some of the new fonts are a little weird sometimes bigger, sometimes
smaller...

It would seem to make more sense to fix the engine next but people seem
to be clammoring for more parts...

The only parts that should be built in are the idealized components,
everything else should be database driven. I think we should take the
ODF zipfile/XML based file format as an example and make that our
priority after fixing the most immediate bugs and performance issues.

We also should be looking for refactorings to improve the organization
of the class tree.

really good book I just bought: Practical Electronics for Inventors.
