Ingo:  Thanks for the reminder about Nim.
There's some pretty good ideas in there.
I'm hoping we can begin to figure something out in this coming year.

I found this quite interesting, especially the part discussing immediate mode vs
retained mode style.

William Pokorny: you might find some of the stuff in "Utilities" useful.


Do we think that there's a way to export POV-Ray's "Abstract Syntax Tree" or
whatever we use after the scene has been parsed and lexed?

Comparing and contrasting a new parser with one that's being developed would be
a useful debugging tool, and a way to measure progress and completion.
