I think Brock makes a good point: the compiler and interpreter could be cleanly separated; of course, they both need to be new in the perl6 project; but the interpreter, for example, could be functionally equivalent to the one in the current perl5. The (new) compiler could be made perl5-compatible at first, and changed (since it will now be easy to change) as perl6 is developed. Or we could just leave it at that and declare victory. :-) -- John Porter Aus tiefem Traum bin ich erwacht.
