    1010Before you download and compile Parrot, you may want to check you system to make sure you have the following packages installed. 
    1111 
    12  * [http://perl.org Perl] (5.8.4 or later is required; run perl --version to find out what you have) 
     12 * [http://perl.org Perl] (5.8.4 or later is required; run {{{perl --version}}} to find out what you have) 
    1313 * [http://perldoc.perl.org/perldoc.html perldoc] (provided by package {{{perl-doc}}} on Debian/Ubuntu). 
    1414 * [http://git-scm.com/ git] 
     
    9999More information about the subject can be found on our `docs/` folder. More precisely, here: [https://github.com/parrot/parrot/blob/master/docs/tests.pod docs/tests.pod]

    103103In general you'll need to create a patch and then create a ticket on Parrot's [http://trac.parrot.org/parrot/report/1 ticket tracking system]. Give as much details as you can. A good idea is to provide a list of all files affected with summary of the changes made in each file and the reasons that made you change them. And don't forget to attach your patch directly to the ticket. 
     
    111111Once again there is a POD covering this topic. Read [https://github.com/parrot/parrot/blob/master/docs/submissions.pod docs/submissions.pod] for specific details on how to submit your work.

    115115If the Parrot's ticket tracking system is not enough to discuss about patches you wrote or features that you would like to develop, you can subscribe to the `parrot-dev` mailing list using this [http://lists.parrot.org/mailman/listinfo/parrot-dev subscription form]. There is also an official mailing list called `parrot-users`. The subscription form is available [http://lists.parrot.org/mailman/listinfo/parrot-users here]. 
    116116 
    117117For real-time feedback you can go to the `#parrot` channel, available on the `irc.perl.org` network. Parrot developers can be found there in almost any time of the day.
