Because of some personal issues, I've been really slow in being able to work on the Star releases since March. I've created a candidate release for 2013.04, but we also have a problem in that some of the modules we've included with Star no longer pass their tests properly. Since part of the point of Rakudo Star is to provide some stability across releases, I feel we need a way to clean those errors up before publishing a Star release. In other words, I don't want to push a release where we know that some of its core modules are broken. So yes, the Star release process needs some attention; unfortunately for at least a little while longer I'm distracted by other things which is slowing my ability to personally work on it. We've made invitations for others to do so (and the release process is reasonably well documented), but so far nothing's happened there. I also agree it would be useful to see other articles reach the rakudo.org site. We hand out authorship bits fairly freely if anyone wants to contribute there. Pm
