However once (if) Perl 6 does come out and take hold I still think this would cause confusion.
Explaining it is also a solution to the 'problem' they are trying to solve here, namely that 5.x seems 'dead' and 6.x seems 'alive'.
A little explanation that the 5.x branch will continue to exist seems a lot easier (and less confusing).
- pyre 14y agoWhat really needs to happen is that Perl 6 needs to be scrapped or renamed to something else. At this point there are so many major changes, that it can't really be called Perl anymore.
