Along these lines ... you could do a follow-up to the Parrot build  
fest which we did when I was in town at the end of March.  In NY  
(Perl Seminar), we're doing an every-other-month thing where we  
introduce Perl 6 features which are working in the Rakudo (Parrot)  
implementation and have people try to execute them at the command- 
line.  In other words, the next thing past ./perl6 -e say "Hello,  
world";
