    This seems like a great resource. Kudos.

    > But most of them are based on the incomplete specs from Google's developer site. None of them can correctly predict what source files protoc will actually accept or reject 100% of the time.

    I'd like to think I got pretty close with the plugin that now ships with IntelliJ. It even supports the 65-bit integer literal [1] that protoc happens to support for proto2-style float and double default values.

    With this as a starting point, it'd be nice to fix some of the pecularities that arise from "implementation as spec", such as that literal value, and the fact that colon optionality in text format is based on value type, not syntax.

    bufdev brought up some good concerns on that issue:

    > This as a community project defeats the purpose of creating a definitive grammar/spec that protocolbuffers/protobuf holds itself to - without that component, having a community-written spec is no improvement over the current situation from what I can see, and in fact could create even more fragmentation and confusion, just my two cents.

    It looks like the protobuf team created a repo intended for this (https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf-grammar), perhaps the spec could be contributed there, including a review/blessing from the official team.
