I believe it will start up again very soon now.  See, a number of the 
main missing prerequisites are now coming online, and so with those 
in place we can start work.

For example, Pugs now has some support for classes and objects, and 
Pugs now can use Parrot as its back-end.

For my part, I have been, since early March, maintaining Perl 6 
versions of my own core modules that are closely related to DBI 
(chiefly SQL::Routine), and hence DBDi.

Up to now, they didn't execute, but starting mid next week, I plan to 
revisit them and get versions up that actually execute.
