You launch Perl 6 without updating the fucking home page? So Perl. So perl.

  Launchdate is still Christmas. Accordingly, the official 6.0 release is also known as 6.Christmas. Right now, we're only at 6.Birthday.

    According to http://rakudo.org/how-to-get-rakudo/ http://rakudo.org/how-to-get-rakudo/ , Perl 6 is just a specification. What changes do you see in the specification between now and Christmas?

      Note that the 'Synopsis' has been demoted to be closer to a set of design docs than a formal specification - it's more about the test suite these days (cf first two paragraphs of http://design.perl6.org/ http://design.perl6.org/). Jnthn made a list of things that are supposed to be fixed by Christmas [1] as well as a list of things that probably won't make it into the 6.0 release [2].
