Re^4: Why Perl in 2020

Does anyone know if a formal Five Whys-like post-mortem was ever attempted on the original Perl 6 project? Or the abandoned Topaz and Ponie projects?

My take on this is that P5 needs those "5 whys". P6 was an attempt from 2000 to answer the perceived problems at the contemporary backdrop. But the landscape has changed a lot in the meantime. Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language :) Wikisyntax for the Monastery}	[reply]
