If this is indeed the signal we are sending (I don't think so), but if we do: we are misleading the public. We should stop that.

    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

        I asked for simple words and you gave me links to lengthy discussions?

        How dare you ... :´(

        So you want to freeze P5's core as it is and delegate all extensions to CPAN?

        But don't you think that features like sub signatures with ...

        • named arguments,
        • default values and
        • parameter checking
        are long overdue?

        And what's "Peter Martin's work" ?

        Cheers Rolf
