Please consider...

Some of us are cursed with companies that have only recently discovered the wheel. hahaha Keeping the old but adding the new would be, by far, the best alternative.

1). We need the old documentation. Getting up to Perl 6 is several years away from common acceptance, for the multi-national that I work for. I'm sure that many others are in the same circumstance.

2.) If the old documentation were to go away then reverse engineering the scripting that previous, and inferior, hackers have... hacked together will become more difficult.

3.) Transitioning scripting from Perl 5 to Perl 6 will require access to Perl 5 documentation.

4.) How can you appreciate the niffty new keen cool updates in Perl 6 without an appreciation for Perl 5?

5.) etc, etc, etc.
