Being totally outside my radar, I don't have much of an opinion either way (same with Perl 6), but I'd have to lean toward saying that it fails at being a mainstream popular (as in being used outside of defense) programming language. Though that might not be an entirely bad thing (say, as opposed to PHP).	[reply]
