Out of curiosity (because I think it will illuminate some of the difficulty Rakudo devs have in declaring something to be a "production release"): - What constitues a "production release"? - What was the first production release of Perl 4? - What was the first production release of Perl 5? - What was the first production release of Linux? - At what point was each of the above declared a "production release"; was it concurrent with the release, or some time afterwards?
