> 1) Do we put them all in the parrot CVS tree

I think it would be good for the languages to be in tree, but I would like
to have it under a different mechanism for cvs checkout. In other words, the
default cvs checkout of parrot does NOT check out the languages tree, but a
separate checkout is required for the languages.

At some point they should need to meet same criteria as the parrot. Right
now, I think the priority is parrot and should remain such. I think the
language implementations are just an experiment, and should not be held to
the same criteria (that should be stated somewhere). However, at some
predetermined point, some resources should be redirected to testing and
refining all of the subtrees (including docs).
