Re^4: Amicable divorce

I think 7 is an overdue signal that Perl is alive and that development continuous.

I could tell you plenty of stories from people insisting that development froze because of 6. They don't believe me when I say that 5.30 was released.

I even see the current controversies positive because they seem to break the lethargy.

I agree with your mother tho that it might already be 10 years too late .

Dear Peter, друг! You lost me, I really don't know what your goal is. Could you please explain in simple words? Best in a central European no BS way without Anglo-Saxon marketing drivel? Please be assured that I can separate technical arguments from personal feelings ... you son of a rabbit! ;P Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language :) Wikisyntax for the Monastery}	[reply]

I don't have "a goal" because there is no coming back from the damage of the past ~5 years.	[reply]
