"If I had some duct tape, I could fix that. "
 - MacGyver

On behalf of the Parrot team, I'm proud to announce Parrot 3.11.0, also
known
as "Duct tape".  Parrot (http://parrot.org/) is a virtual machine aimed
at running all dynamic languages.

Parrot 3.11.0 is available on Parrot's FTP site
(ftp://ftp.parrot.org/pub/parrot/releases/devel/3.11.0/), or by
following the
download instructions at http://parrot.org/download.  For those who
would like
to develop on Parrot, or help develop Parrot itself, we recommend using
Git to
retrieve the source code to get the latest and best Parrot code.

Parrot 3.11.0 News:
   - Core
       + packfile api and pbc handling improvements
       + smarter recursion tracking across threads
       + new "pop_upto_eh" op for finer-grained exception handling
       + subroutine-level profiling runcore cleanups
       + improved window support
   - Languages
       + new math builtins in winxed (abs, sinh, cosh and tanh)
       + better inline support in winxed
       + squaak improvements (sub as expression, new read() builtin)
   - Documentation
       + many new man pages thanks to gci students
   - Tests
