Not entirely related, but:
it would be great if someone wrote usable wiki software (with revision
control support) in Perl 6, and could maintain it so that it keeps up
with Pugs. Because of the current state of Pugs, it will have to be
written in a very simple way.
Especially if it looks great

As I carry on in my spare time to implement a Relation type for Perl
6, I would like to use some of the simpler types that were added to
the Synopsis recently and seem to lack a lot of explanatory details
that older types have, and moreover they don't seem to be implemented
yet in Pugs.
