Hi
ISTM that right now the only option if you want to develop a graphical
desktop application is GTK. At least it seems to be the only one on the
modules list. You may very well correct me if I'm wrong.
I'm thinking if anybody has any knowledge of other projects, perhaps
Qt5, Wx, or any othe
Hi,
Dependency on perl5 for building perl6 looks like a concern. It means that
we can't have and environment with perl6, without perl5. I may be thinking
too ahead, but isn't that the state we want perl6 to be in?
Thanks,
Dipesh

Figuring out the environment, and how to best fit into it, is tricky, wants a
richly powerful programming language, like perl. Ideally one that's almost
certainly already available. Someday, Perl6 will be that language.
Simplification of Rakudo's build process is an ongoing process, and I see
progress all the time.
Remember also that Rakudo is the most active and complete implementation of
Perl 6, but that there can and should be other completely separate
implementations.

I disagree. Just because perl5 is currently required to *build* Rakudo
doesn't mean that perl5 h
Bootstrapping is funny that way.
Besides the tools in the environment, you've got to have at least 1GB RAM
available to build perl6. I can compile it within the Gnuroot Debian app on
my Nexus 5, which has 2GB total real ram, so it has enough even inside the
Android app. I can't similarly buil
It's going to be easier to demonstrate stand-alone Perl 6 on Windows
than an *nix machine. If you remove Perl from them, the result will
probably be a broken system.

There is a difference in gcc and perl5. A C compiler is needed to build
each and every thing out there. What is mean is: is bash version n-1 needed
to build bash version n? I believe the answer is no.

This is pretty much the definition of "self-bootstrapping". For some things
it is considered good; for others, bad.

The Inline::* options are mostly interesting when porting or binding to
existing applications, IMHO. But it's a valid point. Doesn't Perl 5 have
some implementations as well?
