I'm hopeful that it gets replaced in the nearish future by a pure Julia parser. Femtolisp is definitely cute, but as other parts of compilation have sped up, Julia's parser has started to show up as a measurable percentage of compile time. Getting a parser written in pure Julia would make it easier to make improvements, and it would be a decent amount faster (see CSTParser.jl which is roughly 10x faster than Julia's built-in parser).
