Yet it does say something about what the majority of real people think. Should the "people who actually do the work" care about "real people"? I think so, if they expect "real people" to use it at some point. So far I haven't seen any news about Perl6 itself in bloody ages, yet parrot keeps galloping along, release after release. Maybe I don't have the right to say this, but the people working on Perl6 need to get their act together if they ever expect to get something usable done. > There are no magic code or tests or documentation or PR fairies.
