Salut Amirouche,

What you describe was/is the goal of the language-learning project. It is
stalled, because there is no easy way to evaluate if it is making forward
progress, and is learning a good grammar, or learning junk.

The proposed solution to this is to create "random" grammars, and thus
compare what the system learned to the precise, exactly-known grammar.  The
only problem here is that generating a corpus of sentences drawn from a
given grammar is surprisingly hard.  (i.e. is not an afternoon project, or
even a one-week project).

I would love to work on this, but well, good old capitalistic
considerations are currently blocking my efforts.
