Subject: Re: Zed and Luis drop the bomb on Ruby's poor performance

One question I have to ask is "Wouldn't it make more sense to piggy back 
on parrot (the Perl v6) engine?" and get all the benefit of the 
performance improvements that parrot will pick up and the fact that 
there are many, many very clever people working on parrot whose work we 
could make use of.

Is there a reason why we are reinventing the wheel?
