Actually I doubt that complex extensions with lots of XS/C code will get ported "very quickly" since the work involved may be considerable. That's one of the reasons I've put so much effort into making DBI::PurePerl a viable tool. It'll automatically give people a working Perl6 DBI (for pure-perl drivers) as soon as there's a working perl5-to-perl6 translator. Tim.
