http://design.perl6.org/S02.html#Immutable_types for an example of the latter.

so, you think roles aren't types?
(Also, roles auto-pun into classes upon usage).
When I said type I meant class. As I recall from the rest of the spec, things
were either roles or classes. You can't instantiate a role directly, so if a
Blob is declared as a role you can't just instantiate one directly, isn't that
how it works? Either way it seemed to be getting treated differently. -- Darren
