Nick Clark has been guiding me in my efforts to create an optimizing Perl 5 compiler.
Ingy and Reini are both currently working on this and are both coming to visit Austin in the next few weeks to create a solid plan with me.

chromatic, you may not be interested in making this happen, but others are.
Thank you for your continued assistance in pointing out my logical and technical errors, it is very useful! :)
