and jumping from simple things like note-taking, I was thinking of Rakudo and Hugs, for instance, and I believe there's a third version of perl 6 coming along.

So that's 3 implementations for one application (which in this case happens to be a language spec). The tomboys might argue the same thing: duplication of bugs, developer time diluted, etc etc. I have not been lurking much in the perl 6 community lately but what little I have lurked, there don't seem to be any such "ZOMG forks!" fears there.

Perhaps the tomboys should become tommen?
