Abstract: ADQL is a language defined by the IVOA for querying astronomical data. Until now, it has been described by a BNF grammar. In the next version of ADQL, it is therefore proposed to change the ADQL language notation from BNF to PEG. In this article, we will explain why BNF is no longer suitable, why PEG would be better and what needs to be done to switch to this new grammar notation.
