Would you mind elaborating on this some more?
Thanks,

Oh, sorry... Larry Wall didn't actually to Phoenix-pm. At least not that
I know of. This was a forward from me. Thought ya'll might find this
interesting... on a Perl 5 level, in a Perl 6 sort of way, and also on
the subject of software refactoring.

Hi everyone,
I am not a regular to this list but I'd like to induce some thoughts on
threading. I'm not too much into the subject myself, but I've got some
pointers, which I hope are of some use. Please ignore me if I am not
making any sense here.
Herb Sutter has an interesting article called "
Hi Peter,
There are several source filters that make select changes and modules
that give select Perl 6 features to Perl 5. All in all, there's a
lot there -- I've written Perl6::Contexts, for example, which diddles
the bytecode to give Perl 5 programs most of the new contexts from
Perl 6. In fac
It's probably not entirely clear in the spec, but it is already the
intent that version numbers work as API designators as well as module
designators. Certainly, as you speculate, if different authors want
to share an API, they can give it an "API" author that knows how to
delegate to one of the a
The Perl 6 Summary for the week ending 2005-12-04
I heard a rumour on the London.pm mailing list week. Apparently the Perl
6 Summaries are no longer being published. As I'm sure you can imagine,
it came as something of a surprise to me.
This week has been all about Parrot, Leo's go

Hmm. Maybe...
Perl 5 is a twistly maze of passages all different.
Perl 6 is a twistly maze of passages all alike.

Is there such a Perl5->Perl6 translator underway?
I started toying with one, but didn't get very far yet. PPI (on CPAN)
would be a good way to start, but it needs to be extended to be used
as a Perl5->Perl 6 translator.
Greetings,
