Hi. I've been trying to help reorganise the draft S16, as I'm also in
the process of writing something roughly equivalent to Net::Cmd in Perl6. I
have some questions.
First question, how do IO::Encoded and eg. IO::Encoded::Readable
relate to each other? I'm assuming it's one of the follow

At present, signatures appear to serve at least three rather diverse

Whatever this means, it sounds preferable. :)
It means that you can define package A without ever declaring it, by

Well, it was a long shot. Nothing is ever as easy as it seems! The
problem with this ticket is that we need all sorts of different
information, none of which is available at the same time. We need to
