[Sorry Michael, I didn't mean to send it you twice. :) ] I like the RFC idea. I will read up on them and see, if it is a particular format, how to simplify it. But, most definitely, the community must have dialog about the requests. For each request really. On the architecture note, I've written

I was just reading the AES referenced above and I can say now that I'm really happy about some changes to Regexes, and that a grammar may well be what we're looking for. However, even with this great tool, we still have to handle the implementation. Though I can see the benefit of using the gramma

[...] Also, what is the best place to begin learning the Perl6 syntax? A tutorial would be great, as a dry technical specification of the language doesn't teach very well. IMHO examples teach the best. A table with "Perl5 version" versus "Perl6 version" examples - even one-liners - would be

To bring this back around to the implementation portion in an effort to get back on topic.. There are also sample grammars (for those who like samples in addition to docs) available in the parrot source tree, e.g.: http://svn.perl.org/parrot/trunk/compilers/tge/TGE/Parser.pg http://svn.perl
