note moritz That's a very odd view. <p>Why do think Perl 6 should ship with a [doc://vars] module? Or with [doc://Encode], when buffers have <c>.decode</c> and strings <c>.encode</c> methods? <p>IMHO there are also a whole lot of modules in the Perl 5 core that have no good reason for being there (like [doc://Text::Soundex]) <p>I also suspect that there will be quite a difference between "core" Perl 6 and Perl 6 distributions. I see no reason why "core" should contain something like [mod://CGI], but most distributions will probably ship something like that anyway. 835419 835469
