You have at least a year, probably two or more

The funny thing is, I've been saying this for the past 3 years. One of my buddies thinks it's hilarious that every time he asks how perl6 is coming, I always say "probably another year" with a vague wave of the hand. Not that it bothers me, as I'm pretty happy with perl5, but just trying to reinforce your point. I hope perl6 does eventually bear fruit, but I doubt it's going to happen any time soon. (I guess we could consider Parrot to be fruit already born, as well as some of the interesting ideas being rolled into perl5 modules. But you know what I mean.)
