On behalf of the Parrot team, I'm proud to announce Parrot 7.3.0, also
known as "Peach-faced Lovebird".
It is a supported release with a stable API until 7.6.0 end of July 2015.
Parrot (http://parrot.org/) is a virtual machine aimed at running all
dynamic languages.

Parrot 7.3.0 is available on Parrot's FTP site
(ftp://ftp.parrot.org/pub/parrot/releases/supported/7.3.0/), or by following the
download instructions at http://parrot.org/download.  For those who
would like to develop on Parrot, or help develop Parrot itself, we
recommend using Git to retrieve the source code to get the latest and
best Parrot code.
