Sounds like a good idea. I was put off by the big red icon they used, which I thought overdid it, but apparently they are going to fix that. Could you prepare a patch?

My current focus is a rewrite of the Marpa::R2 doc's description of SLIF parse events. A question on the IRC channel got me reading my own docs. The descriptions of SLIF parse events are scattered thru the docs. And, once a diligent reader chases the all of them down, the wording is often not the clearest.

SLIF parse events evolved in two stages: "pauses", then "named events", and both terms are intermixed. I'm reworking the language so they're always called "events". The new, full name is "SLIF parse events" and this is used when the context does not make it clear what is meant by "event". There are other vocabulary improvements -- for example, parse events are now to "trigger", and that term will be used consistently. And there'll be a new POD page dedicated to parse events, as an overview for someone trying to get started.

I hope when this is done, there are fewer obstacles to those of you who want to use parse events. They are something totally new in parsing, and have yet to be exploited to anything like their potential. I hope this doc rewrite will help turn that around.

irc.freenode.net <http://irc.freenode.net> is supported, they say, so perhaps irc://irc.freenode.net/#marpa <http://irc.freenode.net/#marpa> can be usefully displayed on Marpa::R2 metacpan page?
