[antlr-interest] ANTLR grammar for reStructuredText

[Michael Bedward]

Hi Robin,

I use sphinx / rst so I'm very pleased to see someone working on an
ANTLR grammar. I'd be keen to help out if you are going to make it
open source. It will be a couple of days before I can look at it so
others here might answer your questions before I get to it - if not
I'll reply next week.

Michael
