Although I happen to be one of the folks who are reluctant to switch to Python 3, I have to say that this comparison is entirely unfair. Python 3 exists in the wild. It has been released, and has even had a couple of updates. Eventually, it will prevail. Resistance is futile, you WILL be assimilated. Perl 6, on the other hand, is still fantasyware a decade after its announcement. It is, for the most part, THE canonical example of the wrong way to conduct a development effort. -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
