As phrased, you seem to be asserting that (a) Perl5 has shortcomings, (b) Ruby has shortcomings, (c) Perl6 has no shortcomings. I hope that isn't what you mean, but you see how it makes people suspicious of Perl6 when its proponents seem to be advertising it that way...

A Perl 6 status update Posted Jan 7, 2008 5:17 UTC (Mon) by chromatic (guest, #26207) [Link] Perl 6 may have shortcomings. We won't know what they are until people start using it as much as they use Perl 5. We hope we've designed out most of them. We've certainly tried to design away the keenest problems of Perl 5, Ruby, C++, and Java.
