I am curious on how this software approach will evolve further. > http://prequel-pql.gforge.inria.fr/ > > Feedback is welcome. I pick your offer up now. Thus I have read your research report 8918 (Prequel: A Patch-Like Query Language for Commit History Search) to some degree. 1. I imagine that the activities behind the description for a chapter like "5 Compilation of PQL into SmPL" triggered some development challenges. Does an interface exists to view the generated SmPL source code? 2. Did this new query language influence further improvements for the semantic patch language? * Did the error reporting become a bit safer by this command usage? * How much will the data format flexibility evolve together with the handling of a key word like "flexible" for metavariables? 3. I get concerns from the section "5.2 Idealized syntax". How would you categorise it according to the Chomsky-Schützenberger hierarchy? 4. How many means do you offer to restrict commit ranges according to the section "6.1 Commit selection"? 5. Can the combination of words like "token" and "regular expression" be occasionally confusing? 6. How interesting will discussions become around the used hardware that is mentioned in the chapter "7 Evaluation" and the corresponding software performance? 7. How is the status for function and class libraries for this application domain?
