[Kde-perl] Other languages?

[kde-perl@mail.kde.org]

This is true - it is very much a moving target.  But the benefits when =
it
is finished would be huge!  It would allow you to create the bindings f=
or
one language (the Parrot bytecode) and this would in turn be used by al=
l
the other languages(as well as platforms - win32/64, linux32/64, etc).
It's like hitting 20 birds with one stone.

But Stephane is correct - it's not finished yet and is undergoing many
changes.  But hey, you have to start somewhere and I would think this w=
ould
lend a great deal of interest and credibility to both the Qt and Parrot=

projects.

Plus, this would be one hell of an awesome platform to write applicatio=
ns
on.  Of course, I am very naive as to how one would make this stuff wor=
k.
Compared to what some of the people on this list are doing, you guys ma=
ke
it look like I'm writing "Hello, world" programs.

I am monitoring the perl6 lists.
I may miss the obvious, but from what I understand,
Parrot is not quite there yet: objects are not yet supported.
And parrot is a fast moving target so what works one day is broken
the next.
