johnalbinThe latest patch doesn't apply to the latest 7.x-1.x-dev download.
Also, since the API module now requires PGP 6.x, why isn't there a 6.x-1.x-dev release of this module?

johnalbinAh, just realized the patch didn't apply because of the packaging info added to the end of the .info file. Otherwise, the patch applies fine.
That still leaves my and Casey's question about a 6.x-1.x-dev release.

solotandem commentedRegarding the question of a 6.x release (see #2 and #8), I am separating the UI portion of this module to a new Grammar Parser UI module. The Grammar Parser will then be solely a library that is not specific to a Drupal version. I recommend the library be installed in the "sites/all/libraries" directory of your installation and the code be included from there.

klonosJim, I assume the whole conversion to a library you are talking about will happen by the use of the Libraries API module. Right?
If this is true, just know that it will take quite some time before a 7.x version of this module will be available. The reason I am saying this is because I've been monitoring the progress of Libraries API almost since day 1 and I still see quite a few serious withstanding issues for 6.x like this one: #719896: Add a hook_libraries_info(). My point is that if you need to seek some starting point for this plan of yours to convert Grammar parser to a library, then a 6.x version of the Grammar Parser UI seems like the only way to get something started.
I will not re-open this as a feature request, since I understand that it would be meaningless once this is a generic version-less library. All I mean to do with this post of mine is to present an extra argument for this: http://drupal.org/node/729746#comment-3331498
Thanx for taking the time to read all this and for considering my suggestion.
