parrothist - the parrot history records

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This document aims to record the parrot source code releases.

=head1 INTRODUCTION

Parrot history in brief...

... ok, done!

=head1 THE KEEPERS OF THE PUMPKIN

<NAME>, <NAME>, <NAME>, <NAME>, <NAME>.

=head2 PUMPKIN?

[from Porting/pumpkin.pod in the Perl source code distribution]

Chip Salzenberg gets credit for that, with a nod to his coworker,
<NAME>.  We had passed around various names (baton, token, hot

[begin quote]

   Who has the patch pumpkin?

To explain:  <NAME> once told me once that at a previous job,
there was one tape drive and multiple systems that used it for backups.
But instead of some high-tech exclusion software, they used a low-tech
method to prevent multiple simultaneous backups: a stuffed pumpkin.
No one was allowed to make backups unless they had the "backup pumpkin".

[end quote]

The name has stuck.  The holder of the pumpkin is sometimes called
the pumpking (keeping the source afloat?) or the pumpkineer (pulling
the strings?).
