Umm, this isn't really the place for it, so just a quick question: How many people work for ActiveState? (For a broad defintion of "work for"; "is on [a] board" counts.) How many of the things on their "Initaiatives" page do we consider to be major targets of Parrot?
BTW, my quick count for that second question is 5 of 8. Perl, PHP, Python, and Tcl we plan (AFAIK) on being compilable to Parrot, and possibly XSLT as well. (I have no idea how much sense considering XSLT being "compiled" to a VM makes.) Mozilla, ".NET Framework", Web Services, and XML I see as N/A on a Parrot level. -=-James Mastros -- Put bin Laden out like a bad cigar: http://www.fieler.com/terror "You know what happens when you bomb Afghanastan?
