[Discuss] Boston Perl Mongers Tech Meeting today - benchmarking Perl5 vs Perl6

[Tom Metro]

Last month we looked at bringing Perl 6 inspired syntax to Perl 5 via
p5-MOP. This month we take a look at whether any of the current Perl 6
implementations (there are more than 3) have the speed and stability to
be useful for production applications.

Details and directions below and here:
