Robert Jacques did, but I don't know what its current status is. He was 
supposedly going to submit it for review for Phobos, but it seems to have 
fallen through the cracks. And I think that Dmitry has been doing some work on 
it recently as well, but I don't think that he's yet embarked on rewriting the 
whole thing.
