There's spec. In network monitor chm file there's mostly complete 'NPL reference',
which I used to develop my version of parser. 

But there's also 'Copyright information' section, which is almost like: 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd318550%28v=vs.85%29.aspx

I'm not sure if it makes me unable to develop or contribute to opensourced
version of parser, which is why I asked about some legal help week ago.

But if you (and other contributors) develop another version without
reading specification it might work :)

Cheers,
 Kuba.
