     80nanoJIT is being developed separately by Mozilla and Adobe. The two teams are currently attempting a merger into a single codebase, at which point nanoJIT should be released as a separate project.

     85>>It's not available separately yet as Mozilla and Adobe have diverged their implementations. They are currently working on merging their changes and coming up with a version of nanojit that will then become a separate project that both use. I currently track and use the Mozilla version. Yes, I think integrating it into Parrot would be do-able and probably not all that difficult. It's pretty simple to use. The nanojit development team is currently split between Mozilla and Adobe so it's hard to gauge. There's a few people who work on it from both companies. Because there is no separate project yet there are no release/support policies.

     87Pros: Fast. Backed by developers from Mozilla and Adobe. 
     88Cons: Not ready for general consumption yet.
