    Well, on one front it's a business risk. On another front, it's an avenue to open acquisition talks. Ink isn't an app, it's a core feature. I'm quite excited to see this though - the end user experience looks great

    Application interoperability is a big problem in the iOS ecosystem. This looks like a great solution - I'm surprised Apple hasn't released something like this with native OS support.

    > The difference is that OO syntax sugar is implemented in core in Python and Ruby, while in Perl it is implemented in Perl directly I see what you mean. However, that syntax sugar is what people are used to from other OO implementations

    For me, the biggest pros for Perl were it's extreme expressiveness and the power of CPAN. However, it wasn't without it's warts - odd threading, weird sub signatures, faked OO, etc .. I've spent a lot of time explaining
