November Testing Hackathon

A quick announcement before I forget about it:

This weekend, November 14th and 15th, there will be a testing hackathon for Parrot. We want to focus our efforts on improving tests, especially opcode-related tests in t/op/*. Some tasks that we will try to work on are:

1. Converting tests from Perl to PIR
2. Improving coverage of tests for ops
3. Get lots of platform test reports in anticipation of the 1.8.0 release.

I would love to see lots of people on IRC this weekend to help with the festivities.
