kurila 1.11 released
Perl Kurila 1.11 removes the ambiguity of "{...}" being a hash ref or
a closure, by introducing two new anonymous hash and array
constructors: "@(...)" and "%(...)".
Highlights:
New anonymous array and hash constructors: "@(...)" and "%(...)". The
anonymous array/hash ref constructors "[...]" and "{...}" have been
removed. Thus "{...}" is never interpreted as a anonymous hash, but
will always create a closure/block.
Known bugs:
+ Documentation
+ Limited platform support
http://dev.tty.nl/static/kurila/doc/pod/kurila111delta.html
has a more complete list of the changes.
kurila 1.11 is released together with more than hundred modules,
available together at:
http://dev.tty.nl/static/kurila/kurila-bundle-1.11.tar.gz
kurila 1.11 without the CPAN modules is available at:
http://dev.tty.nl/static/kurila/kurila-1.11_0.tar.gz
And should become available on CPAN.
Or use git to get the latest version:
git-clone git://dev.tty.nl/perl
Perl Kurila is a dialect of Perl. With Perl 5 as ancestor it has a
solid base, but without the backwards compatibility
requirement of Perl 5, it is free to evolve into new directions.

Standing on the shoulders of a red giant to face the future.
