in reply to New Perl 6 book coming out with O'Reilly

Very exciting news! Do you happen to know whether the preview will be available on Safari any soon?

Update: By the way brian d foy's Learning Perl 6 is in the works.

Don't try to write perfect code; write code that works, and then decide whether to improve your code for that project or move on to something new. -- Eric Matthes

    Fyi, I don't know how good it is but Perl 6 at a Glance was published in print form a week or two ago.

    If one includes ebooks, then I think it's also worth watching Moritz's Perl 6 by Example and, if you're into bioinformatics, then perhaps Ken Youens-Clark's Metagenomics.

    Yes, the early release (7 chapters only so far) is available within the Safari program.
