Sounds good to me!  My only concern so far has been the reliance on ANTLR 
2.7.6 for using ANTLR v3, but if you can now or will be able to soon build 
ANTLR v3 with itself I'd imagine that little problem will soon be history.  

To be honest, I started using ANTLR v3 some weeks ago after much frustration 
with ANTLR 2.7.6.  For some reason, I couldn't get an ANTLR 2 grammar of my 
own making to be accepted by ANTLR 2, let alone getting it to build AST 
trees.  With ANTLR v3, it's been relatively easy!  Initially, the "early 
access" nature of v3 scared me away, but I'm glad I finally took the plunge 
and am eagerly awaiting the beta releases and, eventually, the final release 
of 3.0 and whatever feature enhancements await us for v3.1.
