A vision for Parrot

Hi,

this morning it struck me that it would be nice to have Parrot not only run
Perl 6 and similar byte code, but that any of the common interpreted languages
be compiled to this same byte code.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think it peculiar that someone
@esperanto.org’ is championing a unified approach to language?

Daniel, is this part of a scheme to bring Python, Perl, TCL, Ruby
programmers around to your way of thinking?

:wink:

Now, now :-). Esperanto is an auxiliary language, so its intend is to
be a second language that everyone learns in addition to their primary
tongue, rather than a replacement for it.
