From what I've gathered so far, Perl 6 core will only be shipped with

Just as a word of explanation for Elyse, the reasoning I saw
behind this was, if we ship it with few enough modules, Systems
Administrators will be forced to choose the modules they need, rather
than just installing the basics and never installing anything else.
What I (wearing my Sysadmin hat) predict will happen is that someone
will bundle them into "distros" (much like the Linux distros), and
sysadmins will select a distro instead of going with the bare bones.

I agree. It also *could* promote a much better usage and potential
understanding of the Perl communities approach to pragmatic problem
solving via CPAN. Which I will always state as Perl's best resource.
It could very well promote future development of Modules as well. Which
I'm always pleased to see.
