Didn't Larry actually accept Darren's proposal and add the C<before> and C<after> operators?
Yes. He also accepted the proposal to add min and max operators - although I'm unsure why they weren't included as functions/methods instead. It seems more natural to me to say 'max($a, $b, $c)' or '($a, $b, $c).max' instead of '[max] $a, $b, $c' or '$a max $b max $c'. Although it _does_ allow for such things as '$a max= $b' (which is shorthand for something like '$a = $b if $a < $b'). And I suppose that '&infix:<max>' doesn't stop you from having '&max' as well. -- Jonathan "Dataweaver" Lang
