I would like to know the best way to keep apprised of the status of
development of Perl 6 on the JVM.
I realize that the README cautions, "Rakudo Star fully supports MoarVM
and Parrot; not all modules work on the JVM at present." I don't have
much familiarity with the JVM, other than a little

I filed a bug report with perl.org (122724). Robert directed me to this

Today, I posted on the ny.pm mailing list an announcement that I will
attempt to organize a Perl 6 Beginners study group in New York City.
I have been advised that for an introductory-level group, the Rakudo
Star release would be the way to go. However, when I went here:

I am evidently confused as to the relationship, if any, between the
'rakudobrew' utility and the Rakudo::Star distribution.
Several weeks ago, when it became apparent that there would be delays in
the release of a Rakudo Star distribution with the "Christmas" release
in it, I executed the foll

Follow-up questions to those I posed on perl6-users today.
So I have successfully used rakudobrew to build moar and panda. That

Now, suppose I *also* wish to install Rakudo Star. I've downloaded the

I am trying to understand the differences in the way the 'split'
function works between Perl5 and Perl6.
Consider this string:

$str = q|This is a string to be split|;

Let's suppose I wish to split this string on the multi-character
delimiter string 'tri'. The results are the same

Of course, all of this is provisional, and open for debate and bikeshedding.
Yesterday I made my first attempt at using any library in a Perl6
program -- specifically, DBIish.
The following succeeded in establishing a connection to a Postgresql
database named 'hierarchy' on the same disk as Perl6:
