I had wondered which of the many RFC's were "good to go", so to speak, for the next step in the design of Perl 6. No status is listed with them, and when I asked here nobody knew of a list. So upon going through Damian's Summation I noted the ones he mentioned.

The first part of his talk states what will be in Perl 6, and when multiple RFC's address a single idea, he sites one of them (specifically, only his own RFC 23 for "higher order functions"). So I think he's listing the ones that made it to the next round, not just cataloging all the raw ideas. The second part lists those that were definitly rejected, so again they seem to be cataloged.

Here is the list, taken from that report:

In reply to Perl 6 RFC List by John M. Dlugosz

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
