So, I finally got around to releasing Merl to Github, under an Apache 2
license:
https://github.com/richcarl/merl
I talked about it two years ago in San Francisco:

See the edoc overview for documentation, and the examples/ subdirectory
for example code.
Currently missing: I'd like to have a good API for working with a
"module" as an ADT, easily adding and removing definitions and querying
the current state, and also reading an existing module from file or as
an AST in a parse transform. The file "examples/merl_build.erl" is a
start, but I don't have time right now to work more on that. Useful
sources of inspiration for such an API are
https://github.com/yariv/erlyweb/blob/master/src/smerl/smerl.erl and
https://github.com/uwiger/parse_trans.
