I am way out of tuits lately. Can you please add this to cage/
todo.pod for me? Or someone?

I'd rather use the TODO.pod at this point. When there are so many
high-level tasks, and not very well documented, I think RT isn't a
good tool. I want people to be able to very easily look at the doc,
and add code where possible. RT doesn't excel at that.

i'm sorry, andy. can not the rt repository be canon for cage cleaners tasks?
it is already for bugs, todo items, and patches.
there is a link to rt already in the See Also section of cage/todo.pod.
if you prefer, i can add this task to cage/todo.pod.
let me know.

That would be fairly neat, actually. Searches should be easy since "cage"
isn't a term of art in the Parrot source. A link on parrotcode.org to an
appropriately pre-formatted search would improve the ease of use.
