Yes they are! I did not expect to find the Perl modules under the parrot directory tree.

It's just there because rakudo re-uses the parrot installation folders. And as a user you shouldn't have to care where the modules are, as long as you can just use them.

As for the docs, Rakudo\docs (from the .msi) contains the cheetsheet and UsingPerl6-draft.pdf, whereas rakudo-star-2010.07\rakudo\docs (from the tar.gz file) contains a different set of documents, including many pod files. This includes running.pod which you referred to in a previous post.

running.pod is meant to be converted into a manual page in the installation step, and result in man/man1/rakudo.1 (and perl6.1) in the parrot tree - I agree that it's not ideal for windows.

Currently we only have one windows developer, so we appreciate any help with windows packaging.

Perl 6 - links to (nearly) everything that is Perl 6.
