+This is Rakudo Perl, a Perl 6 compiler for the Parrot virtual machine.

+This directory contains only the Rakudo Perl 6 compiler itself; it
+does not contain any of the modules, documentation, or other items
+that would normally come with a full Perl 6 distribution. If you're
+after more than just the bare compiler, please download the latest
+Rakudo Star package.
