Dmitry

• bug #980, Started working on this, came to the conclusion that the lexer and the parser should deal with some language-agnostic AST nodes
• Implemented some basic nodes and tested whether the overall idea is acceptable
• We can already convert these node objects back to pseudocode
• Moving on with investigating lexer and parser examples for ply

Luke

TRAVELLING 10-15 dec. was not available for any online meetings.

• bug #676 can continue with ?maxloc after adding "mapreduce-like" mode across the entirety of dd-ffirst bug #1236. this is incredibly useful for many reasons
• adding new mode to svstep, needed for maxloc.
