Hi Peter-san.

I believe GDS2 format is now under the ownership of Cadence.
You can ask Cadence for the official (?) document of GDS2.
They can be reached by phone, 408-944-8051  or http;/www.cadence.com
If you have any difficulty to get proper information, I can help.
Please send e-mail to me in the case.

Takahide
