CPAN will also have to be able to handle modules written in arbitrary
natural languages (chinese, arabic etc) will it not ?

I have a Perl 5 module called Every which provides, simply,
every(5); # true on invocation 5, 10, etc.
every(seconds => 5); # true at 5, 10, etc. seconds

In order to make the perl6 internet-wide environment useful, there needs
to be some form of directory in
