That looks much more fully featured indeed. But I couldn't understand why
features such as the one I "copy-pasted" below are relevant when a simple

   - The Basic AST
Builder<http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/PEAK-Rules/AST-Builder>and
advanced Code
   Generation<http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/PEAK-Rules/Code-Generation>
   - Criteria <http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/PEAK-Rules/Criteria>,
   Indexing <http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/PEAK-Rules/Indexing>,
   and Predicates<http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/PEAK-Rules/Predicates>
