1. I've been looking at this ticket on and off for two years. We've cleared out some programs that clearly were no longer needed. I've looked at the remaining programs and am somewhat satisfied that, with exceptions noted below, the remaining programs are still either essential or are useful to some Parrot developers somewhere. So I'm going to close this ticket, having transferred some remaining questions to Trac tickets. > > Jerry: > > Do we have a rule as to which programs ought to be under 'tools/build/', > which under 'tools/dev', and which under, say, 'tools/util/'? > > 2. I didn't get any response to this question, so I've transferred it to https://trac.parrot.org/parrot/ticket/677 in the hope that it will have greater visibility in Trac. 3. The question I posed about the Valgrind suppression file 'parrot_8.supp' has been transferred to https://trac.parrot.org/parrot/ticket/678. Thank you very much. kid51
