jnthn had designed and implemented 6model and NQP and there was a chance Patrick could have convinced Parroteers to replace the broken stuff in Parrot with these pieces.
Multiple Parrot developers volunteered to do this. Rakudo developers said "No", or in some cases "Not yet." Said developers tired of being called out for not supporting Rakudo on one hand and being told not to improve Parrot on the other hand and stopped working on Parrot altogether. You can easily verify this by looking at mailing list archives from that period.
