Please advise me as to how to proceed.
You have at least two options, both of which are available to you today and neither of which is difficult: continue to use Perl5 or switch to Ruby (or any of a number of other scripting/programming languages). Lots of programs have come out with "Version 2" or 3 or 4 or 98 or 2000 or 9.1 or X or XP and lots of users continue to do quite fine on their existing software/platforms. Also, a quick look at your alternatives indicates that almost any programming language is about trade-offs. Choose tools which are suited to the task at hand (and to the resources-- time, knowledge, money-- available)... maybe Perl6 is the right tool, maybe it won't be.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
