"So what?", you'd be entitled to ask, and it would be a fair question.

Of course it is a fair question. And the simple answer is that I educate people about Perl. Which is what this site is all about, after all.

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).

Having tried to answer most of them, I have noticed them. Maybe you need to take a second look, or raise your awareness.

Anyhows, it may be worth posting a meditation on the relationship between the Monastery and Perl6 to start a discussion on the subject.

You mean like Re: What is the scope of Perl Monks?? or maybe New PerlMonks for Perl 6 - A Good Idea?

It is a different language isn't it?

It's a different language than Perl 5, and still Perl.
