moritz,

I know you're doing a lot of work on the Perl6 project and keen to raise its profile which is, I'm sure, why you posted that snippet.

Sadly, I'm not sure what it will achieve. I'd grade myself somewhere between senior novice and junior intermediate and that snippet leaves me cold. Many, if not most, Perl5 coders probably have a similar feeling. "So what?", you'd be entitled to ask, and it would be a fair question.

If anyone had a question about a Perl6 script would they come to the Monastery? I can't remember seeing any (but I could be wrong on that).

Anyhows, it may be worth posting a meditation on the relationship between the Monastery and Perl6 to start a discussion on the subject. It is a different language isn't it? I'd be intrested to hear what other monks think. Wouldn't it be best if a Perl6er kicked it off (he says passing the buck)?

Oh, and I can give you a tip for Perl6: Hurry up. :-)
