A "protected" attribute is one that can be accessed by subclasses, but not from the rest of the outside world - where do you have that in Perl 6? It's the first time I hear about that (unless you count 'trusts' traits, which are specific to single classes, not groups of subclasses). Afaict Perl 6 only has "private", with "public" emulated by accessors. Cheers, Moritz
