It’s not worth going into because ML, even in Perl, is much older than a few years Yes, this is true, and taken in itself, out of context, my statement was false. However, this was not my main point, my main point was that a lot happened on this field in the last few years that Perl was not part of, and if Perl is all you know, you are at a disadvantage in this field. If you want to explain how you are a fan of Perl6, I’ll withdraw the related point. It seems that you want to goad a statement on Perl 6 out of me. Personally, I have found it frustrating and useless when I've tried it in the past, I have no use for it now, and I do think that the time and effort spent on it could have been spent better elsewhere. This latter part makes it relevant in an oblique way, but again, I have not alluded to it directly in my original post, it has not even been on my mind at the time. But now I have to ask: since when it is not OK to express criticism about Perl 6? Or rather: why do you think that a post lamenting the state of Perl with respect to a specific field is automatically a criticism of Perl 6?
