Hello, 

I have recently been working to make all of Parrot's documents, to include
its more "historical" documents (e.g., 0.0.5 - 0.9.1), available on github.
Unfortunately, the total size of all of these documents is well over 550 MB,
which is far too large.[1]  The net effect is, 'parrot.github.com' will not
build. 

Given this limitation, I need to separate all of the documents out across
multiple repositories and, then, use gh-pages to pull them all together under
'parrot.github.com'.[2]  Consequently, I need an "owner" -- i.e., someone with
the appropriate privileges -- to create five parrot repos.  I suggest
something like the following as appropriate names for the various
repos: 

1. 'parrot-docs0';
2. 'parrot-docs1';
3. 'parrot-docs2';
4. 'parrot-docs3'; and
5. 'parrot-docs4'.[3]

For more information about the problem, please see the dicsussions at the 
following
pages: 

1. https://github.com/parrot/parrot.github.com/issues/2 and 
2. https://github.com/parrot/parrot.github.com/issues/5.

And for more additional information about the solution using gh-pages, please
see "Project Pages" section of http://pages.github.com/.

Thank you.

[1] That is to say, it is far too large for github to build; at least, so say
the github folks.

[2] This, btw, is the approach the github staff recommends.  

[3] I am, of course, not wedded to these names.  So, if someone has better
alternatives, please feel free.
