Correct, but then someone new to parrot who wants to write a compiler targetting parrot will need to look for and read faqs in a lot of different places... I think the real question is: do we want to promote imcc as _the_ target language for compilers targetting parrot? If the answer is yes (as I thought it was), then I don't think we need a pasm faq...
