I'm still upset with the perl6 devs for sending me down the Haskell rathole so many years ago, but perl brought a lot of pretty great things forward and it was by far the best text parsing language for entirely too long. I like what I'm seeing today and I'm willing to give it another shot. I am a bit concerned about whether perl is going to be able to gain momentum again. It won't take too long before people start checking it out and there are some good real-world use case benchmarks.
