I am making something official that has been obvious in practice for a while
now:  the LEPL project is now dead.

This means:

 - There will be no more major releases

 - I will only fix small issues

 - I will feel less obligation to respond to requests for support

 - I will place some kind fo notice to this effect on the main site and update
   the PyPI entry too.

I'm sorry about this - I hope that it does not cause anyone any problems.  The
main reason is that I am increasingly frustrated with the complexity of the
code.  It's no fun to work on and hard to extend.  Also, it turned out to be
less useful than I thought and less popular than I hoped.

There's also a somewhat rambling reflection on complexity at

Any suggestion on what might be a good choice for a replacement, say for a
new project (not relying on legacy lepl compat).  I've been thinking peg
was interesting.

i haven't really kept up with what's happening.

for most people i recommend pyparsing because it has a bigger community, or
antlr for larger projects because it's faster while also being popular.

but for a good/interesting embedded parser, these days i have no idea, sorry.
