Thanks for the replies
I wasn't thinking it was out, but i wanted to try it.
I do think it gives an advantage to know about Perl6 at the time it comes out, i really like to know this new implementation of Perl, from the point it starts.

For my work, i mainly program in oo-Perl, and the next incarnations of our program will remain in Perl.
We all know the limitations of oo in the current Perl version, thats why i'm looking out for version 6, and i like to stay 'on top' of it.

Next, i thought there could be a 'beta release, since the plan is to have a working 6.0.0 compiler ready in the 3rd quarter of 2005.
