The tarball for the July 2010 release is available from http://github.com/rakudo/star/downloads. congratulations, but help me help you guys. i'm currently shipping parrot and rakudo in mandriva. what should i do regarding rakudo-star: - juste update rakudo to rakudo-star - create a new package rakudo-star, alongside rakudo if the former, will future monthly rakudo releases feature everything that rakudo* is shipping? (modules, etc.) if the latter, can rakudo-star use rakudo as its perl6 interpreter, and only installs addons? thanks, jérôme -- jque...@gmail.com
Re: This week's summary
The Perl 6 Summarizer wrote: Parrotbug reaches 0.0.1 Jerome Quelin responded to Dan's otherwise ignored request for a parrot equivalent of perlbug when he offered an implementation of parrotbug for everyone's perusal, but didn't go so far to add it to the distribution. I don't think it's been checked into the repository yet, but it'll probably go in tools/dev/ when it does. Later in the week, he actually got it working, sending mail to the appropriate mailing lists. With any luck the mailing lists themselves will be up and running by the time you read this. Some notes: - I've bumped up the version and we're now at 0.2.1 (I like to increase version numbers, it make me feel like work is going on fast :-) ) - following an irc discussion with melvin and dan, I've checked in parrotbug in parrot's root (and forgot to update MANIFEST - sorry again, Jens!) Thx for the summaries, Jerome -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
