It's not summarized, but there are daily runs of rakudo-jvm and rakudo-star-on-jvm so you can see the status of the spec tests and modules that ship with rakudo-star: https://github.com/coke/perl6-roast-data/blob/master/perl6_pass_rates.csv - summary of spec test runs for all perl6 implementations https://github.com/coke/perl6-roast-data/blob/master/log/rakudo.jvm_summary.out - the rakudo.jvm daily spec tests runs[*] https://github.com/coke/rakudo-star-daily/tree/master/log - look for "*jvm*" - all the various log files for building rakudo-star with jvm. See also the occasionally updated: http://perl6.org/compilers/features > And are there any particular people who are heading up development of the > JVM implementation? Not in particular, no; If you want up to date chat about what's going, see #perl6 on irc.freenode.net > Thank you very much. > Jim Keenan [*] Yes, a huge number of the tests are currently failing, we're aware of it. -- Will "Coke" Coleda
