I see little point in versioning or emulation until we have spec
versions and complete test suite versions that can validate them.
And I see no need to "practice" versioning before that happens; it
will just slow down the drive to complete 6.0.0, and there will
(I hope) be time to consider the fine

Note that I did mention versioned dependencies for grammar, CORE and
setting. So yes, considering the
Thanks Matt,
I really like perl 6 and moose for that matter. :-) I feel
that these implementations of truly take it into the application
programmming arena. And, am hoping perl is thought of when building
larger enterprise applications in the future once there is a true

That assumes it's possible to know with sufficient c
I actsully read the fact sheets in the past and want to confirm that a

Not really a versioned dependencies.
When a working module is updated to have new functionality, the old
version continues to work.
Here it is the very language that is changing.
For instance, =$fh was used to generate input from a file. Now it is
$fh.lines

I know PM does not like the word 'stability' for language development,
and I have just posted a response to Wendell Hatcher's question
justifying Patrick's approach.
However, some other questions arose when I was considering 'usability',
which Patrick sets as a goal for Rakudo *, as opposed fo
I too re-read PM's journal. Note his explicit desire to avoid
'stability' as a goal at this stage for rakudo because of its imprecision.
We often use words that have different shades of meanings for different
people/situations, eg., what is a 'short' time? Consider how a child
