Fun at the Parrot Hackathon

I attended the Parrot Hackathon this past Saturday at the Urban Grind in NE Portland and had lots of fun while contributing in a small way. Larry Wall gave be commit access to the pugs svn repo and then Patrick Michaud showed me how to run and debug Rakudo tests. He also explained that the huge mess of Rakudo-related tests in the pugs svn repo is being vetted and tests are being migrated to the appropriate place in t/spec, which is sorted by Synopsis. I submitted two small patches relating to complex numbers in S29 and a bug report. All in all it was lots of fun.
