Perl6 and Perl5 are very different. you need to download a perl6

please check https://raku
Yes, Perl 5 and Perl 6 are quite different in many ways. Some suggested that
Perl 6 be looked at as not the next iteration of Perl but a new language that
can be made backward compatible with Perl 5 (there are switches etc that let
you run P5 code unchanged) but it is not the case of P5 being

I'm having a look at Perl 6 syntax and I don't get the rationale in

There are two implementation of Perl 6 available, Pugs and Rakudo.

There is also a Perl 6 users mailing list: http://dev.perl.org/perl6/lists

Is Rakudo the official Perl 6 release? I'm a little confused.

That depends on your definition of compiler.
