I had wondered which of the many RFC's were "good to go", so to speak, for the next step in the design of Perl 6. No status is listed with them, and when I asked here nobody knew of a list. So upon going through Damian's Summation I noted the ones he mentioned.

The first part of his talk states what will be in Perl 6, and when multiple RFC's address a single idea, he sites one of them (specifically, only his own RFC 23 for "higher order functions"). So I think he's listing the ones that made it to the next round, not just cataloging all the raw ideas. The second part lists those that were definitly rejected, so again they seem to be cataloged.

Here is the list, taken from that report:
