History: Lojban Formal Grammars

Source of version: 3 (current)

! 3rd Baseline

The current official version of the Lojban machine grammar is the 3rd Baseline, available here in several formats:

* [http://www.lojban.org/publications/formal-grammars/bnf.300.txt|in Extended BNF format] (bnf.300)
* [http://www.lojban.org/publications/formal-grammars/grammar.300.txt|in YACC format] (grammar.300)
* [http://www.lojban.org/publications/formal-grammars/techfix.300.txt|as a change-by-change commentary] (techfix.300)

The Extended BNF and YACC grammars may be found in HTML format, with indexes for each tag, in [http://www.lojban.org/publications/reference_grammar/chapter21.html|Chapter 21 of the Lojban Reference grammar].  As the baseline grammar document, this is the most authoritative source.

If the BNF and YACC versions do not agree, the YACC takes precedence.

! Proposed 4th Baseline

((.alyn.post.)) is working on a proposal for a 4th Baseline grammar.  The 4th Baseline Lojban Machine Grammar will replace the ((YACC)) and ((BNF)) grammars with a ((PEG)) grammar.
