Dear Community, For documentation purposes, in case someone reads this discussion in the archive at some point, I wanted to close the loop by letting you know that I did not get a spot in the Google Summer of Code. However, I hope that the applicants who did get a spot will have a lot of success with their projects. What are the next steps?I will continue working on the project anyway and am currently looking into other funding programs. The architecture is already almost completely clear in my head. To summarize, here is what I took away from our discussion: + lexer.ll and parser.yy are sufficient specifications. + Nevertheless, it was suggested that the lexer could flexibly read lexemes and syntax from a specification. + Concerns were raised as to whether a parser without Guile makes sense at all. I haven't been able to gauge yet whether there is actual interest in my project. Regardless of that, I would like to reach out to you with a few questions in the coming days, if that is alright with you. It will be better to do that under a different subject line (Questions regarding Specification and Lexer), though. Thank you for all the examples you have sent me. Until then, best regards, Christian
