1. Write a parser for the most important rules (exe, lib and so on) based on Boost.Spirit 2. Use the parser's actions to create a dependency tree based on Boost.Graph 3. Attach Python functions to the nodes in the dependency tree based on Boost.Python 4. Implement Python functions for one toolset (like g++)

Boris, personally, it seems it would be more useful to instead improve Boost.Build/Python; for example API with IDE will be certainly useful and sufficiently local project. - Volodya
