[rules-dev] Convert drl to brl

[Michael Neale]

once there is a complete tool-friendly XML (based on RuleML or similar) - at
that point it might be reasonable to have a tool that translates
bi-directionally between drl and the RuleML (which the guided editor could
use) - even in that case there probably would be less information in the drl
to make it GUI editor friendly (but for many cases it could be done).

If you have a specific set of DRLs that follow certain common patterns - you
could do an ad-hoc translator now - that wouldn't be hard, but as mark said
- this is an "internal" format and not documented outside of the code, so be
careful.
