OK, I'll try some/all of the suggestions. I have a few comments-

I'm new to git- if there's already a rakudo directory, will "git
clone" also be good for updating it? Or is the recommendation to build
from scratch each time there's a new release?

Hope your announce also includes an update to
http://perlgeek.de/blog-en/perl-6/where-rakudo-lives.writeback which
lists "Rakudo inside Parrot" first.

Conceptually I prefer Rakudo under Parrot, as it emphasizes that
Rakudo is one parrot-compatible language implementation among many. I
also understand how it's easier to keep the dependencies in sync when
Parrot is under Rakudo instead, so won't protest any further.
