in reply to Perl 6.0.0 is out - merry X-mas!

FWIW, I switched an alias I use somewhat frequently (mostly for test code/data or for throwaway passwords) to generate UUIDs. Problem isn’t important, just that it was easy to do. Install–

~>git clone https://github.com/tadzik/rakudobrew ~/.rakudobrew ~>export PATH=~/.rakudobrew/bin:$PATH ~>rakudobrew build moar v6.c ~>rakudobrew build-panda ~>panda install UUID

Switch alias from Perl to Perl6–

~>which uuid uuid: aliased to perl -MData::UUID -le 'print Data::UUID->new->create +_str' ~>emacs .aliases ~>which uuid uuid: aliased to perl6 -MUUID -e 'say ~UUID.new' ~>uuid ed10881e-dac6-431a-a8ae-9ba2a49be8bc
