guy tried to silence me by locking the conversation to boost members only.. joke's on him
<hkaiser>
yah, saw that and couldn't resist to chuckle
<hkaiser>
K-ballo: I think we have three options: 1) leave things unchanged (using Qi), 2) duplicate rule for 1.70 only, 3) stop supporting Boost V1.70
<K-ballo>
I'm currently working on option 4
<hkaiser>
what would that be?
<K-ballo>
if we are ok with the duplication (which I don't like, but these grammars aren't likely to change anytime soon)
<K-ballo>
then we keep the qi grammar for 1.70.0, and use x3 elsewhere
<hkaiser>
that would work
<K-ballo>
duplicating the rule for 1.70.0 only requires more duplication than just duplicating it in general
<K-ballo>
and duplicating the rule everywhere is just silly.. x3 was just plain broken
<hkaiser>
nod
<hkaiser>
K-ballo: I like that option
<K-ballo>
sometime in 2022 we can finally drop qi
<hkaiser>
yah, that's inconsequential once you've added the workaround
<hkaiser>
nobody will ever touch those grammars
<K-ballo>
by then we may have already migrated to foonatan's lexy
<hkaiser>
;-)
<K-ballo>
that said, I'm sure there's room for simplification on those grammars
<K-ballo>
I'm not going to attempt to change them though
