Re: Re: My 2004 Perlish Wish

Though I share your wish (but I'll not settle for autoboxing!), I don't expect Perl6 until 2005 sometime. That way I get to delay my disappointment by a couple of years or be extremely happy if it arrives before the end of 2005 :-)

I just finished compiling Perl with the autoboxing patch and already I've discovered that the author's nifty examples don't seem to translate very cleanly. And having @array->sort delegated to a SCALAR class is just wrong :/

And yeah, I also don't expect Perl6 next year, but I figured a wish list was a perfect place to have a wish :)
