  +=head2 What is Ponie?
  +
  +At The O'Reilly Open Source Software Convention in 2003, Artur
  +Bergman, Fotango, and The Perl Foundation announced a project to
  +run perl5 on the Parrot virtual machine named Ponie. Ponie stands for
  +Perl On New Internal Engine.  The Perl 5.10 language implementation
  +will be used for Ponie, and there will be no language level
  +differences between perl5 and ponie.  Ponie is not a complete rewrite
  +of perl5.
