Well, not exactly. I'm on the German Perl Workshop next week. Release
will be after that.

Great, thanks.

Yes. It has still too many bugs to enable it by default. But it's in so
folks can have a look at it.

Docu patches are mostly welcome. The current state is still not fully
covered.

I'm currently writing a rather largish document. It compares target
language implementations (mainly CPython, Perl5, Ruby) by features WRT
parrot under special consideration of interoperbility.
E.g. what happens (or should happen) in Parrot with a source line:

  a = b + 2    # $a = $b + 2

The side-effect will be a big TODO list, which just needs some ordering
by priority ;)
