Okay, no problem. We're still learning and establishing where the fuzzy boundaries are. :-) Perhaps a useful default will be to always start out by posting messages and questions only to perl6-compiler. Then if the answers aren't available through p6c, we can then rephrase the questions in terms of language design and forward them to p6l. Pm
