If this post is a language gripe, then at least argue about language peculiarities, not the quality of the open source community's efforts.

"UNIX is my IDE. perl5 is my VM. CPAN is my language."
This kind of thinking pervades the Perl community and as such people in it look at other languages taking into account their entire eco system and community. Way too many people seem to think that the turing completeness of a language is all it needs and that all the things surrounding the language are irrelevant, while they in reality often affect massively how quickly something can be implemented.
