I think the name Camelia or Raku is fine, no need to argue over it forever. During this renaissance period of computer languages in history, it will be nice to get this out and iterate. Given there are plethora of choices today like go, rust, Nim, elm, elixir, Scala, julia, crystal, F#, D etc. trying for developer mindshare which is a limited resource speed is of essence.
Indeed with parrot VM besides perl 6 developers can be truly polyglot with same toolchain. So move forward, it's still a great addition. I feel parrot is truly open source, better than Graal no Oracle involvement.
- riffraff 7y agoparrot (as a multi language vm) has been dead for a long time, the GraalVM is probably the current best bet for a polyglot platform.
- dragonsh 7y agoYeah that's sad Perl 6 moved to moarvm[1]. I guess necessary evil to have performance which they can't get out of parrot. Hopefully someone pick up Moar with Rakudo and make it multi-lingual. Given Oracle involvement in GraalVM, it will always be a risk for open source development.
