Seems to me based on this:

"The point is, if you had good OO like Perl5 code, there should be no problem running it alongside new Perl6 code as long as you treat them as separate languages and you have a fork of the legacy CPAN code. What you need to make sure is that the interfaces between your Perl5 and Perl6 code are stable and work."

...is that you're making a statement, more than you're asking a question.

I've done some dabbling in perl6, and I say I quite like it, but you probably want to speak to someone like moritz to get specifics. He's someone I trust knows a thing or two, after dealing with him here on PM, and bouncing things off off in IRC.
