Sounds great! I'm glad to see continued interest in Yi :) Maybe it's also time for an update on my side...
I've been working on a new framework for incremental parsing, based on the monoid structure. The theory is fairly well understood at this point, and there is even an implementation that works on an (hardcoded) grammar in Chomsky Normal Form (CNF). What's missing? - A lexer generator for this: http://blog.sigfpe.com/2009/01/fast-incremental-regular-expression.html(ideally an Alex backed) - A parser generator targetting CNF (One could think of writing another Happy or BNFC backend), so it can be feed the existing prototype. I'm am currently looking/waiting for a student who would like to carry out the above tasks :) This could also be a GSoC. Then one could think to integrate it in Yi.
