There is also no implicit rights if you provide pull requests for said repo.

I for one will have to delete everything I have on FancyPars and avoid, because I mix work and pleasure all the time, and I have no time in my life for lawyers, life is too short.

You are correct [1], thanks. But I still will have to delete mine, because it contains changes.

No worries!
I will not sue anyone! of any copyright infringement or the like.
I will open/source the of FancyPars.

an BNF2FPG translator is possible will not be too useful.
(If it does not do really significant work that is quite hard to do without deep-neural networks)
That said a first step to translate existing grammars to fpg cam surely be done automatically .
