With the relatively small number of P6 modules out there, and the enormous impact on the number of bug-reports we will see once Perl6 is out, it may be useful to pull everything "in", into a central archive where a number of people can change everything. Of course, it is not an ideal situation. There are no ideal solutions. Like it is done in the Linux kernel: once your driver gets accepted, any change in core which affects the driver will be corrected by the one who caused the change. We need that ability for Perl6 syntax, I think. -- Regards, MarkOv ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Overmeer MSc MARKOV Solutions [email protected] [email protected] http://Mark.Overmeer.net http://solutions.overmeer.net
