»»» This comment mentions Perl 6. Perl 6 is immature, especially in comparison to the rock solid Perl 5 «««

Dear reader,

The Rakudo Perl 6 compiler is a usable implementation. It's not remotely where P6ers would like it to be and there are only a handful of users but folk are using it today to get $dayjob stuff done.

Dear monks,

liz, who posted the comment Jenda replied to, is highly respected in the Perl community for her contributions. (She just won a White Camel award.) This was her fist post here at the monastery in a couple years. You can contribute to the Perl 6 project by simply responding to her -- via substantive constructive engagement, or even just encouragement, either here or on #perl6.

By folk you mean "one person a year ago". Last year it was "about a year away". This year it's "about a year away".

Pure clownshoes.
