I think that's pretty good. Though personally, I can imagine the first two not being mutually exclusive. That is, if Rakudo 1.0 is released but Larry Wall hasn't said that Perl 6.0 is ready, I'd scratch my head and wonder. In turn, if Perl 6.0 is ready and Rakudo hasn't released a 1.0 I might figure that they still need more time.
