in thread What esteemed monks think about changes necessary/desirable in Perl 7 outside of OO staff

FORTRAN after 1977 adopted 11 years cycle for new versions

I'm sorry to say that this assertion is utterly without basis. Here are the release dates of the Fortran versions post-77:

VersionYear of releaseYears since previous release
Fortran 90199214
Fortran 9519964
Fortran 200320048
Fortran 200820106
Fortran 2018201810
Should it be possible on perlmonks to criticize some aspects of Perl 5 current features and implementation as well as its use without being denigrated as a reward?

Sure, criticize away. However, everyone else is also free to criticize your criticism. And when your criticism contains glaring factual errors such as your assertion about the Fortran release cycle then that somewhat undermines the credibility of the rest of your arguments.

Here endeth the feeding.
