29. Language Proposal:
Perl 6 is coming. Some code in Perl 6 is already being uploaded to the CPAN. A new "language" field is an important part of the structure we need to allow Perl 6 to reuse the existing CPAN rather than to try to reinvent the whole thing. My recommendation would be that this be an optional field with an implicit value of 'perl5' --Jesse Comments: * At this time, META.yml is specifically oriented around Perl 5. To suppose multiple languages, much more than just a language flag would need to be changed. --Adam K
