Maude-help mailing list

Dear Konrad:

Python (Cython...?) would be an excellent choice. I'll definitely want to contribute to that but first I must continue to become more familiar & experienced with Maude's modeling philosophy.

The hard part is converting information to and from Maude syntax
to make this useful. I have played with the idea of writing a
Python library for this purpose, but haven't yet found the time
to consider this idea more seriously. If anyone knows of similar
projects, I'd be interested.

Konrad.
