I think that PerlMonks should be about Perl 5 only. Very simply because the word "Perl" implies "Perl 5" to the outside world, even more so now the rename of "Perl 6" to "Raku" has been put in action. As various people have noted in this thread, PerlMonks wasn't a place that was recommended by the Perl 6 community for questions about Perl 6 in the past. And this will even become less so now with the rename.

I've spend a lot of time on PerlMonks in the past, and I have fond memories of it. And also not some not so nice memories. But that's a thing of the past, and we need to look to the future.

Let PerlMonks be about Perl 5 so we can all start healing. Please don't try to be politically correct. Just politely point people with questions about "Perl 6" or "Raku" to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/perl6 now, and https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/raku in the further future.

And soon enough we'll meet again, somewhere, somehow. Because blood is thicker than water.
