Re^2: Migrating from Perl to other language? Why would someone do that?

I would argue from what I have seen that Lisp's CLOS rivals Moose. Unfortunately CLOS's learning curve is, well, legendary.

Indeed; CLOS was in fact one of the inspirations for Moose. However, it would be a bit of a stretch to call Lisp mainstream; it's barely used outside academia/Emacs. `use Moops; class Cow :rw { has name => (default => 'Ermintrude') }; say Cow->new->name`	[reply]

I find CLOS quite easy to learn.	[reply]
