[0]Will Coleda writes "From leo—

On behalf of the Parrot team I'm proud to announce the release of Parrot
0.1.2.

What is Parrot?

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

Parrot 0.1.2 contains a lot of new stuff:

  * New string handling code. Strings now have charset and encoding

  * Parts of a generational garbage collector

  * Better Python support, separated into dynclasses

  * Parrot Grammar Engine

  * Improved test coverage and documentation

  * and a lot more

You can grab it from [1]CPAN.

As parrot is still in steady development we recommend that you just
[2]get the latest and best from CVS.

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

Have fun!
leo"
