Perl 6 code needs to continue to use version-string syntax with the leading "v"; otherwise the ".c" confuses it since "c" is not a valid decimal digit. (I assume this is because JSON marshaling of version strings creates / consumes normal strings, those being the only strings defined in JSON, and the leading "v" of a version string is treated as syntax in the same way that Python's "r'" or Ruby's "%r{" are, with no way to represent those "metadata" in JSON.) -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allber...@gmail.com ballb...@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
