Perl 6 Rakudo Perl - Perl 6 on Parrot #47

Will Rakudo ever be written entirely in Perl 6?

Currently Rakudo is a mix of Perl 6, PIR, and C

Key parser and compiler components are Perl 6

PIR and C are used for runtime primitives

Much of existing PIR code will be rewritten as Perl 6

Many primitive operators and operations may remain as PIR or C
