* Installation
-** Disable installation of yacc.
-
-Add an option to 'configure' that allows people to install Bison
-without installing the yacc wrapper script or the rarely-used little
-yacc library required by Posix. This is for people who prefer some
-other implementation of yacc.
-
* Documentation
Before releasing, make sure the documentation ("Understanding your
parser") refers to the current `output' format.
a sample text exhibiting the (LALR) ambiguity. See the paper from
DeRemer and Penello: they already provide the algorithm.
+** Statically check for potential ambiguities in GLR grammars. See
+<http://www.i3s.unice.fr/~schmitz/papers.html#expamb> for an approach.

* Extensions
* Java, Fortran, etc.
-** Java
-
-There are a couple of proposed outputs:
-
-- BYACC/J
- which is based on Byacc.
- <http://troi.lincom-asg.com/~rjamison/byacc/>
-
-- Bison Java
- which is based on Bison.

-
-Sebastien Serrurier (serrur_s@epita.fr) is working on this: he is
-expected to contact the authors, design the output, and implement it
-into Bison.

* Coding system independence
Paul notes:
makes it impossible to have modular precedence information. We should
move to partial orders (sounds like series/parallel orders to me).
-This will be possible with a Bison parser for the grammar, as it will
-make it much easier to extend the grammar.
-
** Correlation b/w precedence and associativity
Also, I fail to understand why we have to assign the same
associativity to operators with the same precedence. For instance,
