I'm not sure I entirely get it myself, but perhaps it's a good thing if it can take some work off the shoulders of the Perl6 compiler writers. After all, if a lot of Perl6 can be mapped fairly directly to Parrot, without hurting the efforts of other compiler writers, it'll mean an even quicker working Perl6 once the language design is (more or less) finished. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
