Hi Srini:

What exactly is the purpose of Perl 6 ?

There is so much of syntax, idiomatic changes that it seems
almost like a new language.

What happens to all the legacy Perl 5.x code ?

With PHP making deep inroads in web apps 
and Python taking over the core apps side, 
what exactly is left for PERL 6 to do ?


thanks
Saifi.
