I can't speak for the grandparent of this comment, but I'd like to see a Perl 6 release that is actually competitive with perl5 and python in a production setting. Last I heard, the Perl 6 implementations were still very slow, and lacking significant functionality specified in the Synopses.
Until such a release happens, Perl 6 is a nice idea, but not actually useful to me.
- chromatic 16y agoI understand, and I likewise look forward to much improved performance.
