Is there some place STEPS fans can gather and gather our notes? There are archives of the FONC mailing list here [1].
I'm an outsider and also never got Frank to work. I was waiting for the Nile/Gezira thesis to get a high level (but hopefully also some detailed) descriptions) of how they handled graphics. I vaguely remember getting parts of idst working but for each of these projects, there were always multiple versions lying around. Sometimes in odd places.
I read Alex Warth's thesis and it's well written, in a way that makes it very easy to understand. So, of course, I had to implement my own OMeta variant [2].
Also, the VPRI website itself says it's shutting down (presumably folks moved to HARC at that time?).
Edit to add that OMeta is the language agnostic parser and compiler!
