an excellent slide from autrijus' perl 6 talk at yapc::taipei. i'm going to keep that one in mind for future presentations.

autrijus is implementing a featherweight perl6 in haskell. it's on cpan. i'm overly excited.

pdd7 contains parrot's coding standards. this document alone seems to be larger than most oss projects. a very detailed basis to start coding on. (though i wonder how closely the actual source follows the conventions).

unununium looks like a nice os project. one of the authors is working on adding parrot support. a parrot os would be cool.
