[0]leo writes "On behalf of the Parrot team I'm proud to announce another
monthly release of Parrot and I'd like to thank all involved people as
well as our sponsors for supporting us.

What is Parrot?

Parrot is a virtual machine aimed at running Perl6 and other dynamic
languages.

Parrot 0.2.3 changes and news:

  * Dynamic classes now compile on Windows (including ParTcl)

  * New Super PMC allows easy access to superclass methods

  * Implement C3 method resolution order (just like Perl6 & Python)

  * ParTcl has new PIR-based parser and passes more Tcl tests

  * added character class support in Globs to PGE

  * added language implementations of unlambda, Lazy-k

  * many bugfixes, including GC and memory leaks

  * the new calling scheme continued to evolve in branches/leo-ctx5


After some pause you can grab it from [1]CPAN.

As parrot is still in steady development we recommend that you just get
the latest and best from SVN by following the directions at
[2]source.html.

Turn your web browser towards [3]parrotcode.org for more information
about Parrot, get involved, and:

Have fun!
