The Perl Foundation is pleased to announce the first [0]Hague Grant. It
is being awarded to Patrick Michaud, the head of the 'Rakudo' Perl 6
implementation effort on top of the Parrot VM. Conceptually it is an
extension of Patrick's earlier Mozilla Foundation / Perl Foundation Perl
6 development grant that he worked on between late 2007 and mid 2008.
