in reply to Last best chance to rename "Perl6" ?
I fully support that "Perl 6" should be renamed and the next Perl 5 version released as Perl 7.0 shortly thereafter.
This way, both (separate) languages will profit. If that fails, we can always release Perl 5 as "Perl++". Or call it "PTP 7.0" ('better than Python') ;-)
