This excites me alot. Ruby language development could save itself man years
of work if it adopted the parrot VM - so maybe Ruby needs to get some input
into the process to make sure that the feature we want are available.

Personally I am looking to brush up the small languages that I created
(along with their attendant VMs) and port them over to parrot ASAP. Parrot
should become a 'thing / language / whatever' in its own right. Maybe I
should petition o'reilly to start a parrot.org right now to go along with
perl, xml and all the others.

Computing is starting to get to be fun again!
