Re: [CEDET-devel] Plans to integrate a wisent grammar in php-mode

[Steven R. <ste...@gm...>]

Thank you for the proposition, if ever there is a problem with this one day
I will come back to you.

But actually this is not what I meant at all in my last mail :-) . My
message lacked of explanations so this is my fault. What I meant is that
the long term goal implies having a simple grammar in the php-mode
repository, which just handles just a bit more than tagging (no local
analysis). Then, minor modes would provide more complete grammars to
perform, for example, type inference. The two or more grammars I was
talking about were these ones.

We plan to just use one complete grammar at the beginning, so this concern
is for the far (FAR) future, but still I don't really know how we will
handle that properly.
