I think Chris has started looking at generating AST nodes, so our  
Fortran grammar is getting pretty close. If possible, we'd like to  
see this resolved sooner rather than later. Maybe we could submit a  
beta version of V3 to IPzilla? It looks like he already has the V3  
license up on antlr.org. I'd be happy to help out with this.
