Just fork Perl already. Hang out with chromatic and give us ModernPerl v7.0. No one is in charge of this thing except you. May the best Perl distro win!

"Almost six hundred Perl distributions exist, with close to five hundred out of those in active development. Because of the huge availability of software, distributions have taken a wide variety of forms, including those suitable for use on desktops, servers, laptops, netbooks, mobile phones and tablets, as well as minimal environments typically for use in embedded systems." —Change Linux to Perl, and go for it! From Linux_distribution.
