I have plenty of hope and optimism. That's why I hope that you'll abandon this.

There's been plenty of dispelling of FUD. At this point, the only thing that really matters is results, getting the product out. There's no point in talking about what Perl 6 is going to be. That ship has sailed. We need to get the damn thing out, and anything that distracts from that is wrong-headed.

If you really want to help Perl 6, work on code, rather than talking about it.

Or, to quote Jesse Vincent's shirts: "Shut the fuck up and write some code". Failing that, don't distract those that are doing that.
