I think this is a good idea, but there's a decent chance that some people will mishear the change as "Perl 6 is cancelled, Perl is dead". To be honest, I'm not sure anything can change the decline of Perl. There will continue to be Perl projects and Perl shops for a long time, just as there are COBOL projects, and COBOL shops. There will even be some new projects. But many projects will die, some companies will go out of business or migrate, and the ecosystem will continue to ossify.
