in thread My name is 6, Perl 6

Excellent points. The things most likely to not work with perl6 are your obfuscated scripts - but I'm sure perl6 will have a bunch of new ways to say things in a non-straightforward way. Sure seems to be a lot of speculation about a revision that is practically decades away in Internet Time(tm) :)

    Perl 6 may seem decades away in internet time, but given how each release lasts longer, it is likely to survive for over a decade of real time once released!
