<gfldex> there are a few things missing in Temporal, though
<gfldex> like Date.new(now);
<gfldex> you have to do Date.new(DateTime.now)
<masak> how about Date.today?
<masak> if it's missing, that's an omission :)
<masak> yeah, I want Date.today. that makes perfect sense.
<masak> nom: say Date.today
<p6eval> nom 9d39e8: OUTPUT«2012-02-26␤»
<masak> oh! there it is! :)
<masak> we could add Date.now as a synonym, but that feels only half-important.
<gfldex> nom: say Date.new(now);
<p6eval> nom 9d39e8: OUTPUT«Default constructor only takes named arguments [...]
<masak> nom: say Date(now)
<p6eval> nom 9d39e8: OUTPUT«Method 'Date' not found for invocant of
class 'Instant' [...]
<masak> arguably that should work.
* masak submits rakudobug
<jnthn> masak: You implement method postcircumfix:<( )> in Date.
<masak> ooh
<jnthn> I'm pretty sure I already wired up that case :)
