I realise its still very, very early days, but considering the growing number of people who would enjoy just dabbling a little in perl6, it seems unreasonable to expect that the "average person" would install the many megabytes of beta (alpha?) software required, and keep it all updated with the latest releases. However, if someone had already done that, why not let folks log in remotely via shell accounts and try out the latest version on that computer?
Okay, okay, I know there are a million security issues with that, but maybe if the server were highly locked down and isolated, maybe wiped clean regularly, and restricted in the necessary ways... Is this even possible? I'm not a sys. admin, but I thought I'd throw that out there. Any one think that would be useful and possible, and want to suggest a way to proceed with that? --michael <onperl.org>
