The existence of the Perl 6 project > overshadows the fact that the Perl 5 line is very much alive. Not "seems to" - The Perl 6 project has no schedule. There's no "seems to" about it. And perhaps it might be a reasonable PR activity to explain _why_ one doesn't want to rush a largely volunteer effort to design and implement a worthy successor to Perl 5. We want it good. Throwing a lot of money at the problem will get us an implementation quicker, but pretty much no amount of money will let @Larry finalize the design more than a little bit faster. And, well, there is actually a lot of truth to which variables you get to play with. If anyone has a problem with this, I'll happily discuss it, but not on p5p. There's no reason to cripple p5p with more ranting about Perl 6. Jesse
