Can Parrot and Perl6 run on z/OS UNIX?

[Sastry]

Hi

The Parrot documet says that Parrot compiles and runs on a large
number of platforms, including all common ones. The Parrot team is
committed to supporting the following combinations as core
platforms: Linux (x86), Cygwin, Win32, Tru64, OpenVMS (Alpha),
Solaris (Sparc), FreeBSD (x86).

a)Can Parrot and Perl6 run on z/OS UNIX as well?  If so what is the
support currently available?
b)Are the features currently available will also be present for z/OS UNIX?
c)Are there any architecture dependency issues?

Thanks in advance

regards

Hi
I could install parrot with the earlier one itself. Thanks for the help.

 Does this issue still occur with recent svn sources?

  i assume you have the 0.4.0 release tarball. i don't know why it's not
  working with that configuration, sorry--perhaps there's somebody with
  linux and gmake that can chime in. in the meantime, perhaps an updated
  tarball, or a fresh checkout from svn will prove successful. see
  http://www.parrotcode.org/source.html for instructions on downloading
  either.
 
  hope that helps.

Perl6

[Sastry]

Hi

I am looking for the latest Perl6 source code. Could somebody give me
a link to the same?
Do we need to install parrot before we install perl6?

Thanks in advance
