[perl #51340] Problem installing according to http://www.parrotcode.org/docs/intro.html.

So I am puzzled by this. The step that failed for you is the 7th, inter::progs. Did any/all subsequent steps fail? Could you try rerunning as follows: 'perl Configure.pl --verbose-step=inter::progs' Thank you very much. kid51

While we're at it, this same page says Participating in the meeting is by invitation only. But in today's parrotsketch, chromatic said: chromatic kj, all committers are invited. which is less exclusive than kj and I had thought. Methinks this should be clarified. -- Bob

Re: Favicon.ico for http://www.parrotcode.org
I noticed that the favicon.ico for http://www.parrotcode.org is a Camel. Can we have a Parrot for that, in order to do the many non-Perl Parrot based languages justice? Good idea. I've put one in place. If someone wants to make a nicer one, I won't kick and scream too much. -R

Hi, I noticed that the favicon.ico for http://www.parrotcode.org is a Camel. Can we have a Parrot for that, in order to do the many non-Perl Parrot based languages justice? Putting that favicon.ico into 'docs' would also make 'examples/io/httpd.imc' happy. CU, Bernhard
Re: www.parrotcode.org/ points to 0.0.10
In a similar(?) vein, www.parrotcode.org/faq/ currently has a number of broken links, including apocalypses, PDD6, and Java bytecode to Parrot bytecode. This is because the links are funny. The best way to get proper links is to do something like: LThis is CNN|http://www.cnn.com That's not great.. but it tends to render better. Our official Pod renderer is Pod::Simple::HTML, so you can test it out. I'm throwing this back to p6i, so somebody can fix it, and maybe take another pass through the FAQ, addming more F.. A... Q...s ;) -R
Re: www.parrotcode.org/ points to 0.0.10
I just reported this as a bug on Pod::Simple::HTML. The problem is in line 168-9 my $out = $to if defined $to and length $to; $out .= # . $section if defined $section and length $section; One of those Deprecated use of my() in conditional cases they've been talking about on perl5-porters. my $out; $out = $to if defined $to and length $to; $out .= # . $section if defined $section and length $section; fixes it. Looks like we'll be modifying Pod-Simple after all.

Re: www.parrotcode.org
I brought this up several months ago and was told that a new webpage was in the works. Where in the works is it? Does it have an expected time to leave the works? I agree with Mitchell that it is important to maintain a public face (lest we send the wrong impression). [...] Exactly when is it going to leave the works? I sent an email to Dan tonight asking him to complete the patches he's promised so we can have it leave about the same time as the 0.1.0 release. It's just a matter of actually having the new content there. Given that the new webpage won't be replacing the old webpage in time for this upcoming release... I suggest we make a few simple modifications to the _existing website_. Specifically, on http://www.parrotcode.org/, (1) At the top, add something vaguely like Parts of this website are out of date. We are working on a replacement site. Look to the parrot distribution for more current information. (2) From the current top paragraph of the page, and thus of the site, remove this: - specifically, Perl 6, although we would like to keep the door open for other languages in the future. As such, The paragraph currently says Parrot is a virtual machine used to efficiently execute bytecode for interpreted languages - specifically, Perl 6, although we would like to keep the door open for other languages in the future. As such, Parrot will be the core of the Perl interpreter; it will be the target platform to which Perl 6 code is compiled. But why piss people off? Invite them to visit, and then suggest they go away until later. Python, Ruby, Tcl, etc projects already exist, and could probably use volunteers from those communities. And then there's a pie. The new version would thus read Parrot is a virtual machine used to efficiently execute bytecode for interpreted languages. Parrot will be the core of the Perl interpreter; it will be the target platform to which Perl 6 code is compiled. Also, are the patches you refer to something which Dan has to do, or can someone else take care of this for him? Mitchell

I agree with Mitchell that it is important to maintain a public face (lest we send the wrong impression). It will be leaving the works very shortly. A certain person whose name I will not mention here, has been promising to write some of the infrastructure I needed to port stuff to the new system for many many months. I finally gave up and did it myself tonight. (As I'm sure he was hoping I would do.) Exactly when is it going to leave the works? I sent an email to Dan tonight asking him to complete the patches he's promised so we can have it leave about the same time as the 0.1.0 release. It's just a matter of actually having the new content there. Parrot is currently making some large leaps forward in internal documentation, but it would be nice if that could be reflected in our external documentation.

I agree with Mitchell that it is important to maintain a public face (lest we send the wrong impression). I offerred to help sort out the site a while back. It was suggested I work on the new site, though I never did manage to get Combust working, mostly because it doesn't play nice on Win32/cygwin. Now I have Linux configured again and can use it regularly, maybe I can do that. But in the meantime, it may make sense just to fix up the old one so at least it doesn't look like we're still on release 0.0.10. If someone will tell me how to make the changes, without having to spend hours messing with installing a content management system locally, I'll happily get on with it. Jonathan
