Sorry, I didn't realize I was cross-posting to internals. I read chromatic's post in the context of perl6-documentation. I.e., I read it as his/Brent's plans for perl6 test organization. I was just pointing out that lists appeared to be missing from the plans. Didn't mean to rain on the way Parrot tests are organized. I'll pay more attention to the recipients list in the future... While I'm here... Will there be a distinction between lists and arrays as their implemented in Parrot? I'm wondering if perl6 lists will be literal arrays. So that: $l=[1]; $l[0]++ would be an error. Any plans for supporting literal arrays? Or does this belong on perl6-language?
