There is one reason. Licensing. We don't have a solid license for perl 6 yet, but odds are it'll be different from perl 5's license, and until we know they're the same or compatible, we can't necessarily lift things out of the perl 5 source without permission of the original author and anyone who might've patche the code we're lifting. You have no idea how thrilled this makes me... :( Dan --------------------------------------"it's like this"------------------- Dan Sugalski even samurai [EMAIL PROTECTED] have teddy bears and even teddy bears get drunk
