If the author wants to do it, then ++ to him. I am not criticizing him, I just don't understand why everyone $h1t talks Perl6/Parrot, yet doesn't help - yet when they do it is for a different, yet parallel effort.

You ask what resources the author is pulling away from Perl6? How about his 0wn? That is not to say, again, that I am criticizing him. I applaud his interest, but how is this going to fit into the greater picture? It doesn't have to "fit" into any picture, but if that is the case, then say so.

Lastly, I don't know why you threw in that Perl is a "Turing complete" language. While true, this is certainly nothing special or unique.
