[clug] [OT] Perl 6 and a new word/concept for me:

[steve jenkin]

The first full P6 environment, Rakudo* is approaching release.

<http://blogs.perl.org/users/ingy_dot_net/2010/07/rakudos-really-really-release-ready.html>

This caught my eye. Hadn't heard the term before. Even a real word :-)
Thought the idea might resonate with a number of people on-list.

"I am an Acmeist Hacker, which is to say that I only like to work on
projects that serve many programming languages."
<http://acmeism.org/>

BTW, Rakudo* is not yet ready for Prime-Time:
"If your expectation of Rakudo * includes blazing speed... fuhgedabowdit!"
