Although this may seem counterintuitive, at this point I wouldn't hire 
myself to hack on Parrot.  That's because I simply don't have the kind 
of compilers/deep-C background which our core contributors have.

I hope that when the Parrot project matures enough to be able to fund 
people to work on Parrot part- or full-time, we will be able to fund 
people with that background as well as people building implementations 
of dynamic programming languages with large user bases, most notably 
Python, Ruby and PHP.

Thank you very much.
