Yes, that's why I said "de facto" rename ... since it's clear that Zoffix' goal is to end use of the name "Perl 6" in order to disambiguate between what he states clearly are two different languages.

I'm glad that "Perl6" boosters are finally acknowledging that fact in public, up to and including Larry Wall. But Larry's contention that there's a single culture incorporating Perl and "Perl6" is just clinging to a long-discredited fantasy.


The way forward always starts with a minimal test.
