can I add a few unsolicited ruminations from a lurker; * just release perl 6 now and move on
* do not hire 40 year olds with responsibilities, convince the young to spend their time for free ... isn't that what one is supposed to do after the age of 40 ? * use all funds to promote its usage, not fund its development * promote its usage past perl's borders, e.g. perl should be an ingredient not a closed garden at some Perl conference ... * look at successful OS orgs like mozilla and apache (different to each other yes) and copy their techniques a systematic plan past these points will then be possible. cheers, Jim Fuller
