I sent and email to metamata regarding Open Sourcing JavaCC.
Originally the argumnet for closed souce was okay for devlopment but the tool is
very stable
now. Maybe they will. If not I too will move to antlr.
Maybe otheres intersted in JavaCC could get them to come too a decision on Open
Source for
JavaCC. I'd like to know. I rather use javaCC but only as Open Source.
