in thread rakudo-ng branch

"We" refers to people from the community who are eagerly waiting for that release to happen. Of course I'm not a contributor to rakudo and that is the reason why I'm asking this question.


Please let me know if its against Perl Monks policies to talk about rakudo or Perl 6 here. If that is the case, I seriously apologize as I understand most of the moderators are taking their personal time to moderate this forum. I would be equally irritated if someone would waste my time without purpose.

I asked this question as I thought Perl monks can be used to ask both Perl 5 and Perl 6 questions. I didn't know we have infighting within the family already.

    I don't know about your priorities, and what's more important to you, asking the questions or getting the answers. My comment was less about asking the questions, and more about getting the answers. As far as I'm aware, the people who work on Rakudo mostly keep to themselves, or rather, aren't really active on this site.

    I'm not sure about infighting, but you might be unaware that not everybody eagerly awaits The Second Coming of Perl (or its dromedary incarnations). So I guess you can avoid some confusion by specifying the people you mean by "we" a bit more instead of assuming that "we" means "people like me", without having given your "me" some more shape.

      Ok, thanks I got your point. Also I will not include everybody as "We". I don't know how to edit my original post (As it doesn't give me an option) else I would have edited it as "me" or "people like me" as you suggested.
