Which is just as well, because Benoit's already said in the FAQ that he 
doesn't want to target .NET.  I don't know if you can write one component in 
.NET/.GNU/Mono without having the entire rest of the system have to be 
targeted to the VM as well.

I saw that someone added "Will Gambas be compatible with Parrot?" to the FAQ 
on the wiki, as though that were different than Java or .NET somehow.  I 
wonder if it would be possible for interested parties to translate Gambas 
bytecode to <VM flavor of the week> bytecode someday... but I personally 
don't see the need.
