Jim Berry (aka [solotandem](http://drupal.org/user/240748)) is the father of[ Jimmy "Boombatower" Berry](https://www.lullabot.com/podcasts/drupal-voices-66-jimmy-berry-drupal-test-framework) and talks about the [Grammar Parser module](http://drupal.org/project/grammar_parser), which is used in the [API module](http://drupal.org/project/api) and Coder Upgrade portion of the [Coder module](http://drupal.org/project/coder). Berry is also the author of the [Deadwood module](http://drupal.org/project/deadwood) to help upgrade modules from Drupal 5 to Drupal 6, and this functionality has been improved with the Grammar Parser and migrated into the Coder upgrade module for upgrading modules from Drupal 6 to Drupal 7.
