(http://www.eclipse.org/Xtext/). It's built on top of antlr, so maybe
we could even reuse the grammar that we already have. I know that, by
default, you should right you grammar using their simplified version.
sure could be
intersting.
I'd be careful about doing too much work, as I'm gonna need to see the
testing framework updated, so that it an unit test the new rete data
structures I have for collection oriented match.
I'm also wondering if we might be better served using a type safe Scala
datastructure/dsl....

Maybe the guys there would also be interested in providing something
to Drools. It could be a showcase for them.
Not sure if this also applies to the Eclipse DRL things that we have.
Cheers,
Leonardo.
