Really. That's great. I'm not sure how Parrot relates to what I've said in this thread? Nor even to anything I've ever said about Parrot?
It's simple. A person can talk and talk and then complain about how no one jumps to write code for said person, or a person can write code. I choose the latter.
But then again...if it is possible to create Parrot code, but not to create a thread to run that Parrot code, then could that be an indication that threads on Parrot is going to be another tack-it-on-later solution?
That really depends on what you mean by "tack-it-on-later". The concurrency PDD is still unfinished, and, as such, not completely implemented. Here's your chance to suggest a better threading model than ithreads or pthreads.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
