The following information is condensed from rakudo.org

    A new version of the Rakudo Perl 6 compiler is released monthly.

    Rakudo Star is
        A useful, usable, "early adopter" distribution of Perl 6.
    It includes more than just a Perl 6 compiler.
    A new version gets released every several months.
    The latest Rakudo Star was released in August 2014.
