Another 2 or 3 pennies^1 worth of strawman proposing / bikeshedding /
flight of marketing fancy about naming etc:
Perl's Rapture

Imagine we officially embarked on a year+ long communal process in
which we (TPF and Perl community) sort out branding and marketing of
Perlish languages.
Hi Damian,
The .kxxv method name is a placeholder.

While I'm all in favour of other languages using Pod as a documentation

I think that's unlikely. Pod says that anything of the form:

I can't see many other
However it seems we have to pay a price: each act of rendering a Pod

with all the security risks implied. So we'll need a *very* good

Nonetheless, DOC INIT { system rm -rf . } (or etc.) would be unfortunate.
Gotcha. Perhaps something like perl6 -DOC is needed to execute DOC

Excellent idea. But may I suggest you perhaps might like to hold off

@Larry had some very fruitful discussions about the long-overdue Pod

Ha! :)
I do indeed feel underwhelmed. I'll surely get over it but I may as
well post why, even though Larry's presumably trying to stop the
Rakudo Zengi would be the most (in)appropriate, I think.
Why do I get the sense that some in the community are suffering siege
mentality? ;)
I had thought of things like Zen, Zero, Catalyst, etc.
