in reply to The Secret Features of Perl6

Tell us what would amuse you to see in Perl6. Funny error messages in the compiler? Guest appearances by Nodereaper? Undocumented* functions that do funny things?

I'm sure many of you have already noticed how hard it is to get some managers to let you use Perl. We really don't need any "amusing" features that will be no doubt brought up thousands of times as arguments against Perl. Thanks.

    But that's why we would make them secret undocumented features.

      Why do we need any more? Nobody has even published The Nine yet.

        The Nine? What are they? I couldn't find anything about that with a SuperSearch.
