How good is good enough? How many pages is a replacement parser allowed to break, and still be certified?
I was thinking the answer was obvious:
Brion is about the only man in the world who can get away with anything less than bug-for-bug compatibility, and have his answer accepted. So it's just as well it's him doing it!
(Well, Tim could too. But Brion is an excellent answer.)
My understanding was that there were presently between 4 and 6 independent MWT parser projects going on, and that one of those might end up being what went into the mainline; I didn't know Brion was working on {any of them,one of his own}.
Oops.
Question still stands, though.
