in reply to New Perl 6 book coming out with O'Reilly

Thanks for writing the book and congratulations on getting it published. My only complaint is the phrase "the new version of the popular programming language", which Perl6 isn't. Perl5 and Perl6 are clearly, and have been very clearly marketed elsewhere as, distinct but related languages.

    Yes, you're right. I took that paragraph from the O'Reilly marketing presentation, I should probably have changed it.

      It might be worthwhile for someone with the right connections to have a word with them about fixing that too.
