I'd not be surprised if the total number of CPAN modules actually tested by everyone who's tried Inline::Perl5 is less than 100 so far. A few folk on #perl6 have mentioned using it. Tux has mentioned using Inline::Perl5 with Text::CSV_XS elsewhere in this thread. Stefan Seifert, the author of Inline::Perl5, said it was working with DBI a few days after his first commits to Inline::Perl5 and he's since demo'd using it with Catalyst.

Stefan has also briefly touched on some Perl 5 features that are not expected to work with Inline::Perl5.

Another important option when considering mixing Perl 5 and Perl 6 is Inline::Perl6.

Btw `&foo.nextwith...` is supposed to one day tailcall the `foo` sub but it's not yet been implemented in Rakudo.

»ö« . o O ( "the celebrity tell-all of the Perl-6 cult?" )
