So here we are one year later. Who is using Perl6 and what are you using it for?

    I'm developing a Perl 6 based GraphQL implementation.

    It isn't ready for public release yet, but if anyone is interested, contact me.

    I'll also be describing it a bit at the January Philadelphia Perl Mongers meeting.

    It is my first real Perl 6 project, and I've been very impressed. I still have a tendency to try doing Perl 5ish things, it is a bit of an adjustment, but once it clicks, I have a real appreciation for the thought that went into the Perl 6 design.

    Thank you so much to all of those who contributed to it over the years. I know it has been a long and trying ordeal, but I really think the final product (6.c) has been worth it. I look forward to the rapidly improving implementations of it (Rakudo/MoarVM) ultimately fulfilling that vision.

    I dabble with it from time-to-time just to keep familiar with it, and I started writing a logging module with it for learning purposes a while back (had to abandon it due to lack of time, but it's still there for later), but I don't use it for anything outside of just playing around.

    Same here, I use it for play and read on Perl 6 posts for (self-) education.

    I've been spending time elsewhere, most notably in end-user training in the last 12 months.

    Cheers, Sören
