What is Python's answer to Perl 6?

People have also been working on running PHP on Parrot, a Forth-like 
language is reimplemented on Parrot, and Parrot developers are taking 
Ruby into account as well. I don't know how much of an afterthought 
Python-on-Parrot was, but it's certainly not a minor subject right now.
