That's a wrong way to describe it.
There were some important performance related changes to the spec prior to the Christmas release. The focus was on keeping MoarVM backend up-to-date, that's my understanding.

- xaduha 11y agoAnyone trying to use Perl6 should use MoarVM backend, which was the only supported one for Christmas release. Perl6 test suite is massive, you can't "break it with a patch", a commit like that would've been reverted.
