Re^2: Will Perl 6 Replace Perl 5?

So as per the Perl community's description itself, Perl 6 is not ready for Production???

That's correct. You'll have a hard time finding an active Perl 6 developer who tells you that Perl 6 were production ready right now.

Rakudo is quite usable in terms of features, but not in terms of stability and speed. We're working on it, but you'll notice that the Rakudo Star release anouncement explictly mentions that we target early adopters, not production users yet.

Perl 6 - links to (nearly) everything that is Perl 6.

Ok, But that wasn't thought that was going on in the thread. What I could infer from the thread was that production ready depends on individual needs and environments. And the whole thing about things being 'complete' was portrayed in a very different way than the conventional understanding.	[reply]

It would be nice if Perl 6 developers could agree on what "production" or "mature" or "complete" means, yes. (I take some consolation in the fact that neither word stable or unstable appears in the Rakudo Star release announcements.)	[reply]
