Parrot was (or is being) developed as a platform for Perl 6, and is part of the Perl 6 total project. The Monstery (PerlMonks) embraces all things Perl, including the emerging Perl 6 and its internals. Parrot questions, IMHO are on-topic here at PerlMonks. In the interest of searchability and clarity, it always makes sense to compose node titles that help to provide basic context for the question being asked in the node. If the question involves Parrot, it is smart to include mention of Parrot in the node's title, particularly where folks here may, at the moment, be used to thinking in Perl5-ish context.

Ovid mentioned he's not certain what will become of the Monastery and other Perl 5 resources as Perl 6 emerges and gains popularity. I have to agree that I don't know such things. But I do know what would happen to a Perl site that shuns Perl 6. I'll favor the 'embrace Perl 6' scenario while maintaining a kinship with Perl 5'ers.
