Maybe, but no one started writing code right away, so the Perl 6 implementations are younger than the idea of Perl 6. I really consider the real work to have started around 2005. People sorta wandered around for a bit after the coding got started and only really hit on the right path and right group of people around that time. No one really wants to talk about that though, and are content to let people think it's just taking a long time rather than admit having problems at first. |
