Thank you *very* much rg0now. I see, the mixed in roles are neat, and the trait verbs look quite powerful and intuitive. Looks like you can get methods from other languages since the PyDict layout is noted. And that smart match ("~~") on meta methods not only looks like a new Japanese smiley but seems like it could be really useful. Since S2 talks about mutability and macros it looks like just about anything would be possible in the future, even a language that looked like English prose. Certainly I'm looking forward to studying more about Perl 6! (And thanks Joost I'll look more at Lexical::Attributes for practice.)
