in reply to Getting started with Perl NCI or XS?

I would recommend sticking with XS, and making up to date PAR/ppm versions available.

Or, create Alien::libSDL (see Alien::wxWidgets)

    An Update.

    With discussion with chromatic, and other developers; I have come up with the following proposal/map: Please critique!

      v2.2.1
    • Create build scripts and instructions for packagers (Alien or otherwise)
    • Host binary for most platforms
    • Remove XS build from Build.PL and instead have it download binary XS and SDL dep binaries.
      v2.3.0
    • Have an alpha parrot parse that generates either pure XS or P5NCI
      v3.0 and beyond
    • Have parrot parser generate parrot NCI calls for perl 6
