data64 writes "The latest Apocalypse talks about subroutines. Looks like we finally get type signatures which are way more powerful than the rudimentary prototypes available with Perl5."

    Perl 5 is broken on the Potato and Woody builds... any luck of getting Perl 6 to work?

    ... so unlikely to be able to be whored for karma in it's entirety without a lot of work :o)

    Perl6 is looking amazing, though. It's looking a lot less crufty than perl5 in a number of ways, and actually looks a very modern language now. Plus, it's still Perl. Woo!

    So long as we get a foreach() mechanism with in-built index into the array it's looping over, I'll be happy. That's my biggest problem at the moment..

    Acording to yahoo.com: President Chirac said that France was prepared to veto the U.S.-backed resolution on Iraq.

    You Americans accuse France of cowardness but I find that the french attitude is very bold; France is the only country which dare to say that the insane policy of your actual administration is nefarious for all the world..

    Flame at will, France rocks!!

      France is also willing to invest 4 billion in Saddams regime! How brave of them to be willing to overlook mass murders, rapes, and tortures for a potential profit.
