One of the things which the perl6 mailing lists are doing is brainstorming "what is wrong with perl 5" -- this first draft by Kirrily Robert is (as I see it) pretty much a reflection of that brainstorming. Definately, not all of them will make it into Perl6, and all of them will end up being hashed and rehashed on the various perl6 mailing lists before being dumped into it. These items are already being commented on on the perl6 bootstrap list (it will be nice when the other lists exist), so this list is definately not cut in stone.
