>  reunification of Perl's best minds to help propel it into the 21st century

The lesson I learned in many years of participation in various fields of "voluntary work" is that it's often not the quality of the minds, nor their good intention, nor the amount of sacrifice they are willing to make which determines the outcome of group dynamics.

Sometimes the system is just broken.

Just compare how Chromatic is nowadays spreading much vitriol on Perl 6 personal, after being one of their poster boys.

Nevertheless I'm trying to judge his posts here on a technical level. I'm assuming that he is somehow desperate about how the system failed.

So maybe we should try judging cPerl without going ad hominem?

    Who am I personally attacking? Give me a link and I'll redact and retract any and all personal attacks.

      From my recent memory, for instance this thread

      Re^8: The Future of Perl 5

      the discussion was getting constantly more bitter with accusations of "smearing" each other.

      You will probably reply your posts were not "personal", but I still see parallels.

      update

      to avoid misunderstandings:

      • google says "vitriol" means "bitter criticism"
      • wiktionary says "Bitterly abusive language"

      I didn't intend to say you are abusive.
