in reply to Inclusion of Raku on PerlMonks

Given that the main impetus for changing the name among the Raku developers who supported the move was to dissociate their language from Perl, and the PR goes to great lengths to purge "Perl" as completely as possible from their ecosystem, why would we think that even they would welcome such a mention here?

This reminds me a little of Hiroo Onoda, or maybe more like Attun Palalin, as he wasn't even Japanese.


The way forward always starts with a minimal test.

    See the text I quoted.

      That quote seems to me to exemplify the context I mentioned: that they don't want to be included in a Perl-focused site unless it's made clear that Raku's not Perl. I don't think you can interpret that small quote as seeking inclusion.

        I never claimed that, it was a counterpoint to your post.

        That's news to me (although as always, I'm open to being proven wrong). Are you sure that your apparent hatred of Perl 6 isn't affecting your interpretations?
