18:23:51 Colleen <shinmera> So I'd like to make all of the SF3 spec machine-readable

18:24:07 Colleen <shinmera> But I don't know how to do that for certain parts without also making the machine-readable spec really complicated.

18:24:24 Colleen <shinmera> The reason I'd like it be machine-readable is so that we can generate parsers for the stuff.

18:25:45 Colleen <shinmera> But for example stuff like "The size of the file, which is computed from FileOffset{n+1}-FileOffset{n}." is really hard to express

18:26:13 Colleen <shinmera> Or "The remaining number of octets in the Entry. This can be obtained by subtracting the size of the Source, Category, Time, and Severity from the Size of the Entry."

18:26:31 Colleen <shinmera> The rest I've been able to ratify away
