The only response I got from the Parrot Developer mailing list was one
message saying that the lack of response was a pretty good sign the
package should be removed:

http://lists.parrot.org/pipermail/parrot-dev/2016-July/007660.html

That was over a month ago, so if anyone was going to object, they would
have done it by now.

So, my plan is to run through the removals process, first officially
verifying that parrot doesn't have any reverse dependencies. If it's
truly unused, I'll request removal of the package.

Thanks,
Allison
