Perhaps you should check out the section “The End of an Era” in last weeks Perl 6 Weekly: https://p6weekly.wordpress.com/2017/05/16/2017-20-crossing-the-alps/ You should realize that open source software is not made by robots but by people. People for which keeping up with changes can take more resources than they have at hand. Also remember that without panda, I don’t think we would have had an ecosystem out now as fleshed out as it is now. So saying that certain software stinks, feels more like projection than anything else. So yes, *I* think it was uncalled for. Liz
