Some of you may be interested in my near-daily blogging I've been doing
about my efforts to port CGI::Application to Perl6:

http://use.perl.org/~markjugg/journal/

Currently, over 50% of the test scripts are passing. Some of the other
test scripts simply haven't been refactored from Perl5 to Perl6.

Just this morning I completed a proof-of-concept that it will be
possible to seamlessly using Perl5's HTML::Template by embedding Perl5.
 (Other template engines should work as well, I suspect).

The one thing which might not work right now with pugs is the
introspection we need to see the list of who all the parent classes are,
allowing some of the advanced plugin functionality.

I should disclaim, though: the performance is horrible now. It seems
like it takes 5-8 sections to return anything. It's fun to play with,
but I'm not planning to serve any real web pages with it until
performance improves significantly.

My 50% broken code is available for darcs if you want to play with it:
