[albany-pm] Meeting followup

Article on perl.com about someone's efforts to port Test::Builder to  
perl6.

Nice to meet all of you last night: we should plan another meeting  
late august/early september. While NbN had some great food, it was  
unwieldy for the number of people that showed up.

Perhaps one of the college students in our group can arrange a  
conference room. Justin suggested the RPI Union's bar.

For a small chunk of work that we could do as a "group", we could go  
through the documentation and the examples at

http://www.parrotcode.org/

and in increasing level of difficulty:

1) make sure the examples still work with the current version of parrot.
2) find any simple documentation nits. (missing punctuation, typos,  
grammar, etc.)
3) find any more complex documentation problems, like missing  
documentation for certain opcodes, etc.

and at http://bugs6.perl.org/

4) verify that old bugs haven't been fixed and just not closed.
5) find TODOs or bugs at http://bugs6.perl.org/ for parrot and try to  
implement one of them.

And, for something hardly perl related at all, I would of course love  
volunteers to help with Partcl (tcl written on parrot). Of course,  
that's about 3 steps removed from perl5, so it's probably not  
interesting for most of you. =-)
