New progress report

[Christian Iversen]

Hey guys

I'll stop working on pyjaco for today, but I'd just like to share with
you how far we are now:

FAILED (failures=115)

This is down from 177 just 2 days ago! Good progress in my book :-)


The new node transformation infrastructure really is the right way
forward. It is much cleaner (although a bit harder to read), and it
completely separates distinct tasks like indentation and formatting from
semantic things like syntax rewrites. It also provides a great
foundation for plugging in optimization modules, or special-case
transformations for certain targets.

I can even quite easily see this extended to PHP. This could be
interesting for running Python on common webhosts that don't have native
Python support. It should be much easier to do, since PHP have many more
library functions available than JavaScript, and more native features
like classes, etc.

As always, I'll keep you apprised. :)
