in reply to Perl 6 now in beta version (Rakudo Star Nov. 2015 release)

I kind of feel this was a bit premature. These days, almost every time I try to do something non trivial in Perl 6, I encounter a bug. And performance still is not great. I'm afraid people will be disappointed when they open the gift

When I look at the pace of rakudo development, it seems to me that December 2016 would have been more reasonable. By then there will probably be a better documentation system, more perfomance and features, and fewer bugs.

    Are these reported already or are you discovering new bugs? If you find something they're not already aware of, please report it!
