I have a release candidate available at
http://foxglove.dnsalias.org/~sfink/parrot-0.0.10.tar.gz (please
excuse the poor bandwidth - for a better option, see below). I'll do
the actual release tomorrow, I just wanted to put it up now in case
anyone has time to give it a final lookover. I *think* I managed to
find all of the occurrences of the current version string this time.

The tree is now unfrozen. Hack on!

Better yet, make your own release tarball. From within the parrot
tree:

1. Update your copy of parrot. I made a couple of changes and one
bugfix. The exact version I used is tagged as RELEASE_0_0_10:

cvs -q update -r RELEASE_0_0_10 -dP

2. Delete the DEVELOPING file and remove it from MANIFEST.

3. make release VERSION=0.0.10

This will create the file ../parrot-0.0.10.tar.gz. Probably much
faster than if you downloaded it from my web server -- that would
require about 10 minutes over my DSL uplink, assuming you're the only
one doing it:

% ls -lh ../parrot-0.0.10.tar.gz
-rw-rw-r-- 1 sfink sfink 6.8M Mar 16 01:06 ../parrot-0.0.10.tar.gz
% ucalc '6.8MB/100Kbps'
(9.284 minute = 9 minute 17 sec)

(That was a gratuitous ad for my Math::Calc::Units module.)
