in reply to Open season on official Perl 6 grammar

Dear monks,

I think that is great, as the more work there is on Perl 6, the sooner we'll be able to have a precise view of what it will be, and the broader audience it will reach.

However, I've got a basic question for all the compiler and grammar experts out there : how can the Perl 6 grammar be written in Perl 6 ? Is this just a first try, that will be converted to another tool later ? Will it be generated from a cpan Perl6 module ? It seems like it is an hen and egg problem...

Anyone to enlight the ignorant monks like me ?
