Same here. Diffs published from the Journal Officiel aren't so easy to parse. I am afraid it could be manually generated, which is a dead end.

The author mention he did it in an afternoon of code, so it's definitely not manually generated : "Voici un petit hack, résultat d'une après-midi de code"

I do agree that the technical details would be interesting.

I don't think it's possible to generate a general parser for the Journal Officiel in an afternoon.

It would make the author a _very_ efficient worker.

It's probably possible to do that for a crawler of http://www.legifrance.gouv.fr though.

He said in another comment that it's not how he did it.
