Re:Will Perl 6 be too big a change? (Score 1)

If you already know Perl fairly well, you shouldn't have too much trouble learning Perl 6. Besides, how can you expect to just learn just one programming and language and end there? The nature of this profession is that you are constantly learning new things. Also, Perl is in need of some major changes ie the OO portion of it. I really like Perl, but the current OO implementation feels more like a hack than anything. Not near as elegant as say Python's OO feature. I would really hate to see Python overtake Perl as the interpreted language of choice; therefore, I support any changes that need to be done.
