I thought I had just missed it... but there's no trace of it in the
archives of [EMAIL PROTECTED]. Or any other perl6 list.
the perl books has some animal to represent the main idea
behind... or just for the fun.
Perl 6 sounds good. I suspect some people would be leaning towards a
gem, given Topaz and Sapphire.

The book to read is not the one which thinks for you, but the one

Yes. It'd be far better having the XML stuff working in a more
'first class' fashion than assorted h2() etc functions.

This I totally disagree with. The use of an array in scalar context
does (and I believe should always) return it's length. It is one of
Perl's single most usful features (in my expirience)...
Almost. print @array is a list context.
