Don't forget about the wonderful things happening in Perl 5. You can talk about all the cool things in Perl5.9.5, which will be Perl 5.10 soon. There's no reason that you have to talk about Perl 6 when you talk about the future any more than you have to talk about what you'll be doing next year when someone asks you about next week. :)

    I have watched a bit of the code progression in 5.9.x (mostly from 5.8.7 to 5.9.3) and have seen some material about 5.10 (including attending a talk on the regular expressions engine), and I can optimistically say I am looking forward to looking through Perl 5.10 and using it as soon as it is released.
