Damien Conway interview: Perl 6, Java, his PhD 18 years ago
Am I the only one who considers Perl6 dead and irrelevant? I haven't seen anything approaching a usable product out of the efforts, and how long has the project been underway now? By the time it's finished, Perl5 is irrelevant as all the kids will be using Python, Java, Ruby, maybe D. Legacy applications won't switch from Perl5.
