Out of curiosity, how many people do you have working on the parser?

[tyoverby]

We don't have specific people that do parsing; if your feature needs changes to the parser, then you make those changes.

One nice thing about using recursive descent, is that your parser "is just a normal program." It's also a potential problem, but every substantive project needs coding standards anyhow.

I guess 12 or more poeple are on the new keyword team, always ready to jump on a new language feature added. After all it happens every 3-5 years.

Adding a new keyword to a parser is a huge work, even tests need to be written!

The best part about going open source was being able to outsource the bikeshedding discussions to the community!

(Just kidding, we still do them internally too)
