But I hope its much, much sooner. I'm glad I have parrot-0.0.8 to play with *right now* but I want a fully fledged language, with an O'Reilly book to boot! Seeing Damian Conway talk on perl6 was great - I only wish I was about 10,000x more of a programmer than I am so I could help out with development!!!
