Well, as you pointed out, Python 3 differs from Python 2 only with minor languages changes.
Perl 6 is drastically different from Perl 5 (though clearly in the same lineage). Not only the language is quite different, but so is the design of the implementation.
So it's not much comparable.
- oblio 12y agoMy logic is: Small changes = slow adoption. Large changes = ? While this does not apply to every situation, unless Perl 6 somehow manages to create a huge wave of hype, I'm not going to bet on it :)
- sigzero 12y agoI would agree with that logic. Don't look for a wave of P5 programmers to switch.
