    Why not? I'm not against Perl6.

    I've said all along that if it ever materialises with sufficient performance to be usable for the kind of stuff I do, I'll seriously consider using it. I really like some aspects of the language design.

    I've been down on the development process; and still hold serious reservations about some aspects of the infrastructural design; but I've never been against the idea or flavour of the language.

    Seems another case of people reading what they think I might write; instead what I actually write.

    In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
