Eclipse IMP
I received an e-mail from Robert Fuhrer of IBM on Friday announcing the newly renamed Eclipse IMP project (formerly SAFARI).

I’ll spend some time with this in November/December after OOPSLA. I’ll probably go through the basic IDE-generation demo first. Then I’ll start looking for opportunities to use this in my own work. Though given that I’m largely invested in transformation languages and (meta)metamodels, I’m not sure that there is much overlap at present. I remember hearing that IMP had some notion of declarative language descriptors, but I’m not sure if these have any relation to some other traditions and trends out there. It will be very interesting to watch all of this stuff converge in the coming years.
