  <h3>Introduction</h3>
 
  <p>
- Cparse is a tool written by Timothy Moore to parse C header files
+ CPARSE is a tool written by Timothy Moore to parse C header files
  into FFI definitions. The tool will initially support only CMUCL FFI
  definitions but will be extended to support the generic UFFI library.
  </p>
 
  <p>
- Note that cparse is somewhat limited in its ability to understand
- C header files. Other approaches certainly exists, for instance 
- <a href="http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/lth/ffigen">FFIGEN</a>.
+ Current maintainer is Christian Lynbech.

+ <h3>Plans</h3>
+ This are the current plans/ideas for CPARSE. Feel free to make further
+ suggestions on the mailing list.
+ <ul>
+ <li> Merge in Christians stuff. This includes a port to ACL FFI and the
+ start of a port to UFFI FFI.
+ <li> Investigate handling of "long long".
+ <li> Let CPARSE loose on random C header files and make a set of
+ examples. Try to clean out Linux/GCC'isms.
+ <li> Write automated tests for CPARSE. Franz' test harness seems
+ rather good so it will probably be based on that. 
+ </ul>
