After re-reading this a bit, I wish to clearly state that "No" is a
perfectly reasonable and acceptable answer to the above questions (and
that I should probably leave such statements to Jim in the first place :-).
My goal in this thread is to let Parrot developers know where Rakudo
needs things from Parrot, and not to try to pressure Parrot into
commitments of specific development or support. It's entirely
up to the Parrot leadership to decide where Parrot's priorities
are, and Rakudo will work with them the best that we can.
