Hello all,

I'm the student picking up on the translation work lwall started. Since the
perl 5 parser is more or less complete, I've headed straight to the
translation work. I'm going to be taking on the translations a few at a
time, starting with the easiest translations and moving to the more complex.
I've got a design document detailing the first few translations I'll be
handling, and I'd greatly appreciate feedback and advice. Larry already took
a good crack at it, catching a few things I had stupidly thought were
simpler then they are, and now it's ready for general review.

The current version can be found at
http://infohost.nmt.edu/~slatorra/conversionstageone.txt

Any advice/comments/criticism on the document and even ideas on
implementation would be greatly appreciated.

Sage
