Hi,

I noticed that intro.pod is someone behind where Parrot currently is, in a big way. It doesn't make a single mention of PIR for one, and all the examples are in PASM, which is for "silicon based lifeforms". I think most of the readers of intro.pod will be carbon based ones. ;-)

So, I re-wrote it. It now talks about PIR, and has examples in PIR. It mentions how PIR differs from PASM. Subroutines now get a look in to the introduction, and it mentions in passing that Parrot is capable of doing OO stuff, threads and GC. I've attached it for review and, if nobody yelps in horror, I'll commit it in a couple of days. Suggestions for improvements are welcome, though as it's an intro it probably doesn't want to get too much longer.

Thanks,

Jonathan
