Please, you, everyone, forget about the word "core". It is an
implementation detail.
Yes! Though it's a natural mistake because people assume that The
CORE(TM) in Perl6 means something similar to the core in P5, when
really it's conceptually (and implementationally) something quite
different.
I think we need a new slogan: "CP6AN is the core, Perl6 is the new
-MCPAN -eshell."
Or: "Perl6 is the seed -- grow your own core."
Or: "Parrot is the core, Perl6 is just a syntax module."
Or simply: "Perl6: there is no core."
Core-dially,
