There is very active development on FO Tree building, property resolution and layout models. A lot of that development is desisn speculation, such as the design notes I have been posting, and there is also a fair bit of code, all of which resides with my ISP, references to which I post every now and then. Arved is, as you know, engaged in a C/C++ project for a fast, small footprint FO Processor over at SourceForge, and I copy all of my design discussions to him. He has just committed another set of perl modules to his prototype. The approach of both Arved and me is revolutionary rather than evolutionary, primarily, I think, because both of us feel that the requirements are so complex and interrelated that the design of all of the phases must proceed in parallel, which also means that everything is up for grabs.
