>now has a compiler called rakudo

Rakudo, predating the rename by 10 years, will soon be 15 years old.


Is anyone using it?

It seemed like a really interesting project, but they really screwed up with the marketing, firstly by calling it Perl 6 and secondly by never giving a date when it would be ready. I am using Python these days.


They screwed up by calling v((n+1)) a fundamentally different language.

Not really
