Subject: Document differences between your module and others
You mention a few other modules in the acknowledgements section. But given the impressive amount of documentation your module contains, there is no section comparing and contrasting your module to the others. Also, if you module is functionally similar but performs better, please provide some benchmarks.
This is a good idea. In fact, at one time, the docs did have such a thing, but the evolution of Marpa made the them obsolete. Once Marpa settles down again, a new discussion contrasting Marpa with other approaches and characterizing the speed should be created. In the meantime, my blog discusses these matters. Whatever eventually appears in will probably have been in my blog first. Thanks.
I am describing the differences between Marpa and other parsing projects in my blog and on Marpa's new web page: http://www.jeffreykegler.com/marpa. This distribution is now deprecated, and will not be updated.
