It's been mentioned to me that some folks were surprised that the design team hasn't been more effusive in it's support for the incredible job that Autrijus is doing prototyping the Perl 6 interpreter over the top of Haskell.

We had thought that answering his questions about 1000 times faster and much more extensively that we ever answer anyone else's (;-) might have indicated how much respect and admiration we have for the work he's doing. But apparently not.

So let me publicly state that Larry, Allison, Patrick, Luke, Hugo, chromatic, and myself find Autrijus's work both amazing and amazingly useful: as a way of exploring the deeper design and implementation issues, and also as a way for people to start playing with (and experiencing the real power of) Perl 6.

Well done, Autrijus!
