I suppose you'll want me to put that on the CPAN now. ;-)
Yes. Didn't we sponsor you for this ;-)
I hear and obey, O Mighty Sponsor!
Though I suspect I'll hold off until Larry makes A3 public. Then I'll
release a module that rearranges *all* the operators to their new Perl

i'd not know about that. seem to recall seeing an example of APL in a
book once and it looked very scary. or it might have been
still, if damian gets his way we'll no doubt be able to have
modules/filters that mean we can still use - :)
I *guarantee* it!
It will definitely be possible in Perl 6, because even with our primitive
earth technology we can do the reverse today:

That's BORING. Obviously the right way to do it is to allow lvalue
overloaded operators, and overload . for everything.

Some quite exciting stuff in there. Array dereferencing will be
@foo[23] rather than $foo[23]. Everything will be an object (or at
least work like one). No more typeglobs. User-definable quoting
operators.
And much, much more!
