I've temporarely turned on [1] strict args/param count mismatch errors.
Doesn't look too good. WRT return/results count mismatch, I think, this
should be a little less strict and allow 'void' function calls of
functions that return something [2]. But that's a different issue.

At work we have a big C++ project. I just added a new object, and
now $boss asked me to add the send/receive interface. These two

All,
Speaking briefly, I would like it if Perl 6 provided a way for a

declared to be of that type are automatically/implicitly set to a

I know this is beside the point, but I have to point out that
this script will break on at least Windows – and probably every
other non-Unix OS as well.

This is probably because the program prints on STDERR. Look into the

Beta testing - CPAN tracks intra-module dependencies, and does automated
testing, but only on released modules. It would seem useful to allow
an author to upload a "beta" version of their module, and then run the
tests of a dozen or so modules that depend on it. This way, you would
