perl6 creates a new instance of the perl compiler (presumably an

Let's define some terms:

scope/origin - where objects are created
I would refine this one.

I was thinking about lazyness and IO and worked out this potenial
gotcha. In essence its quite simmler to the pipe buffering problems
you sometimes can get in perl5.

my $banner = =$news # Throw away the banner. So far so

How do we intend to manipulate raw binary in Perl6? Perl5's use
bytes; pragma is rather poor (forcing all strings to be raw in its
scope or requiring do {use bytes; ...} type tricks to deal with them)
and now Perl6 has real typing perhaps it would be more usefull to have
a bytestring type (or and

I suspect there will be many ways to do types stricture
I'm just wondering if a documentation trait on subs would be usefull.
If we are going to have something like p6explain the doc trait could
be used as the source for the infomation for it. p6explain would
simply have to walk the AST reading the doc traits and pasting the
text together.

Basically what is the behavour of the hyperop when applied to two
hashes. The concensus was that the hashes would get unrolled into
lists, and the pairs would get matched up more or less randomly.
