I think that the "global variable by default" thing is outdated, especially with how advanced the rest of Perl 6 is. If it can be done right, let's do it. I hate suggesting work, but it sounds like you've got a really good handle on this. The current RFCs (6 and 16) only address whether or not strict should be on or off. Do you have any interest in writing an RFC that fully details how we could fundamentally change the way variables are scoped? If not, I'll put one together. I think we need a 3rd viewpoint to make this discussion worthwhile. -Nate
