I was trying to collect all "technical" comments about the engines in
the page [1] linked by Robin (my fault, I posted that in the wrong
thread), but I won't have a stable Internet connection for another
week...
Either way: RE2 [2] has no lookhead/lookbehind assertions, which was
one of the issues "to be solved" [3] by a proposed engine (and to be
honest even QRegExp in Qt4 supports lookaheads, and I don't see any
reason to *drop* features instead of gaining new ones).
