[Recipients list trimmed back to just the list - it was getting ridiculous.
So everyone will get only get one copy and it may take a tad longer to
get there . . .]

You won't be able to query attributes at run-time? Even within
the class? I rather like the ability to loop through
the attributes of an object with something like this Perl5 code:
foreach my $attr (qw(foo bar baz))
{
print "$attr: $this->{$attr}\n";
}
Will something like that not be possible in Perl6?
