 I think we should improve that situation. Suggestions:

 1) A link on http://www.parrotcode.org/source.html

 Sure.

 Already done since 2-3 months, see
 http://www.parrotcode.org/source.html#Packages,
 but with the word Win32, not Windows.

 Cygwin is missing there:

 a href=http://cygwin.com/;Cygwin/a

 Attached patch adds that.

 2) A page in the parrot wiki

 Even better, on the new site give it a page like
 http://www.parrot.org/windows.

 3) maybe even a separate site (parrot-on-windows.org perhaps?)

 It already has a separate site on SourceForge. Adding yet another site would
 be more confusing than helpful.

Attached patch changes that to Windows (Win32). Not really pretty, but
better in terms of search engine optimization.
(I don't think I have commit rights to that repository... or do I?)

I'd also suggest to move the Packages section further up (directly after
Release section), because I hope that more end users than developers are
(or will be) interested in parrot. And those get bored easily when
reading about various source code management tools first.

Cheers,

A good idea. I'd happily apply another patch... *wink wink*
