Lexer+Yaccer are finished, Bytecode/Abcfile library too. Right now I'm walking the AST. Converting syntax to bytecode seems to be mostly straightforward (as the opcodes are all pretty high-level). A variable allocation/mapping strategy is needed though, unlike with AS2. I guess a first version which can do basic stuff like expression evaluation, class definitions, functions, function calls etc. will be finished in a few weeks. Syntactical sugar like the inline XML stuff, regular expressions etc. might take a while longer.
