Yes, the adminstration and networking policies at many companies are broken; unbelievably so, in some cases. I don’t believe that makes it a bright idea to hang the “which modules do we put in core” albatross that caused so much grief for p5p around Perl 6’s neck yet again. If we have to pander to the clueless in order to make life easier for those in the trenches, I suggest that a Perl 6 distribution that includes as many modules as feasible be maintained as a strictly separate project. But the P5ish emphasis on core modules has to go. Regards, -- Aristotle Pagaltzis // <http://plasmasturm.org/>
