It's been a while since I played with Perl. I haven't looked at Perl6 at all. But reading Damian Conway's addendum at the bottom, really makes me want to play around with it.
Mostly this:
>Ultimately, I think that we’re pretty happy with Perl 6 being the “World’s Worst ML”, so long as it can also (simultaneously) be: the “World’s Worst Smalltalk”, the “World’s Worst Lisp”, the “World’s Worst Snobol”, the “World’s Worst QCL”, the “World’s Worst Erlang”, the “World’s Worst Prolog”, the “World’s Worst Python”, the “World’s Worst C”, and even the “World’s Worst Perl 5”.
Because that was one of our design goals too. :-)
