Randall, I do know that, and I love Perl 6!  I also feel comfortable
writing CGI programs, so how can I use both most efficiently with my apache

P.S. I enjoyed meeting you and shaking hands with you at YAPC::NA::2016.
Thanks for all your contributions to the Perl community!

Many years ago Jeff Horwitz had a proof of concept mod_parrot, which allowed a 
mod_perl6. He did some talks about it at YAPC. Lots of things have changed 
since then though. Notably perl6 is mostly using moarVM these days, which might 
mean that effort isn't useful any more, but I don't really know.

At any rate, there hasn't been any effort from the mod_perl PMC to 
port/rewrite/support perl6 at this time.
