I've just started volunteering with the Parrot team, and one obstacle they face with smoking _all_ of parrot is how to exec all of the tests in each of the parrot hosted languages.
After some discussion, we decided it would be cool if TAP::Parser would look at the first line of each test file, kind of like --exec, but with automatic detection of the interpreter to use.
I wouldn't mind building the patch, but I'd definitely need some hand holding. Realtime hacking in the Portland/Hillsboro area would be eligible for beverage/food compensation.
