Perl 6 took so long to come out that it long ago became a punchline. The actual launch was the softest I've ever witnessed, and the retention of the name is misleading given the huge changes in the language. I expect usage and awareness will grow with time, as the geniuses that do the proofs of concept that get the masses' blood flowing burn out on Clojure, Rust, and Haskell and start looking for the next big thing, and write a framework that makes people's heads spin. Maybe that genius could be you.
