Perl and AMD's proposed general HW support

[sg]

AMD has a Light-Weight Profiling proposal -- which "is a CPU mechanism that could have broad benefit to software including, but not limited to, runtime environments such as Sun Microsystems' Java Virtual Machine and Microsoft's .NET Framework."

Wondering if anyone associated with perl is active in guiding the specifications?

Update: Intel is likely to have a similar initiative. It would be nice if people stopped talking positively about Java and Net and started talking about parrot. So I sent the following email to [e-mail].

  Subject: Is LWP backward or forward looking?
  
  Hello,
  
    The trend for programming languages to become more like human
    languages is accelerating as evidenced by Web 3.0's Semantic Web
    and Perl 6's interpretor Parrot.  At the same time, Java and Net
    mentioned in LWP's overview are mature languages which are 
    likely to soon be on their downswing, if not already.
    
    Questions:
    
    1) What, if any, are LWP's forward looking plans 
       for Web 3.0 and Parrot?
       
    2) Is the purpose of LWP to prolong the life of 
       legacy languages or to anticipate and enable 
       improved approaches to programming?
