Maybe the site maintainers could add an Apache rewrite rule so the URLs used by the public will be http://www.perlfoundation.org/perl6/index.p6 and http://www.perlfoundation.org/parrot/index.parrot That would change the perception and we would not need to explain about mod_perl running the .cgi scripts at the rate 100-200 faster than good old CGI. When asked if they really run on Perl 6 and Parrot we could just smile... Gabor
