the official release announcement from Jeff Goff, Parrot pumpking:
"Where am I?" "In the CPAN." (apologies to Patrick McGoohan) Welcome to version 0.0.6 of Parrot. Major changes in this release include a new assembler supporting the keyed access syntax, new macro syntax, new Configure scripts, a Parrot assembler written in Parrot, the C#-like language 'cola' with limited OOP support, and lots of new documentation. Some contributions include tetris.pasm and an implementation of LZW compression. As per usual, if you want to join in on the fun, start by downloading a copy of parrot-0.0.6 at CPAN at one of the following URLs (or a mirror):
