Y'know, reading this thread and feeling the vibe, the discourse, the strength of community and interest in discussion and not only doing the right thing but being proven to be doing the right thing by the sort of community consensus that's been driving us forward for so long, I felt a great burgeoning sense of hope about perl 6 that I haven't felt for a long time.

And then your small-minded, nasty comments made me feel physically sick and nearly ruined it all until I realised that that was all they were.

Maybe you could try 'Shut the fuck up and write some code' yourself. Or at least don't bother the people who want to talk positively -and- write code. Because god dammit I'm loving this and I don't want you to spoil it any more than you already did.
