Looks like my post really touched a nerve given your totally over the top characterization of it. >Are you suggesting ... No, I'm suggesting that when someone complains that they still can't use perl 6 after all these years it's dishonest and overly defensive to try and claim that an 80% release that's apparently been released multiple times makes their complaint a complaint of ignorance. A more honest approach would be to respond "well, that's true but we're working on it and you can help by using what we have so far".

I'm suggesting that when someone complains that they still can't use perl 6 after all these years.... I don't read that in any sense in what you wrote before ("Perl 6 is somewhere on the horizon"). I don't know anyone's specific needs to deploy Perl 6 for Serious Production Code, but I do know that multiple implementations have been available for five and a half years such that anyone interested could evaluate its suitability and that the purpose of the Rakudo Star releases is to produce code usable for more and more people.
