... why is no-XS a minus for Perl6? Obviously, given that I like perl's XS facility, from my POV it's going to be a "minus" that Perl6 doesn't provide that type of C interface. There's also the fact that XS can access static libs. On Windows, which is the OS I most commonly use, we have a module named Win32::API that, like perl6's Native Calling Interface, allows us to call directly into dynamic libraries. I neither like nor use Win32::API either. (In fact, I can't stand it.) I much prefer to do it via XS. Cheers, Rob
