Hi,

I am announcing this Padre release here as well as there are
some Parrot related issues.

The main Parrot related features are:

* Allow the execution of PASM files using parrot
* Allow execution of Perl 6 code using Rakudo
* Allow Padre to partially run on Parrot
* Padre::Plugin::Parrot - an example on how to write plug-in for Padre
  that runs on Parrot.

They will only work if you have Parrot compiled on your system
and configured the require environment variables. See
http://search.cpan.org/dist/Padre/lib/Padre.pm for details.


Padre can be installed using the standard CPAN.pm shell but
if that does not work there are some instructions on
http://padre.perlide.org/wiki/Download

I have not yet packaged a binary version of Padre 0.15 for Linux but
for Windows there is a beta version of Portable Strawberry Perl including
Padre 0.14. You can download it and then upgrade Padre by typing
cpan install Padre.

Enjoy and provide feedback!


regards
   Gabor
