The FenneC language and its specification are inspired by (but not related to) the CiviC language which was invented by Clemens Grelck for the Compiler Construction course taught at the University of Amsterdam.

Finally credit to the teaching staff of the Compiler Construction course at VU Amsterdam for creating such an interesting course. I hope this extension can help people have as much fun with the assignments and the language as I did.
