  • Corinna

    Corinna - Bring Modern OO to the Core of Perl

  • This is the current proposal (it's a living document). For example it was just decided to drop the CONSTRUCT phaser and likely the common keyword.

  • Inline-Perl5

    Use Perl 5 code in a Raku program

  • I'll be happy to dialog about this compatibility, but the key thing is to start with an open mind; a recognition that the original vision predated Parrot; and a recognition that Rakoons have never relinquished that original vision even while many of us are delighted that Perl folk are keeping Perl healthy as a separate thing in its own right.

    To be clear, the realization of Larry's original vision is not constrained to interop with Perl. Raku has extraordinary potential, some already realized, for pan-language compatibility via its [Inlines](https://modules.raku.org/search/?q=inline).

    The steady improvement of [the exemplar Inline](https://github.com/niner/Inline-Perl5) for the last 6 years; its evident maturing; its suitability as a solid blueprint for upgrading all the others; all of this bodes well for being able to use a lot of the world's best existing code from within Raku this decade, with Inline::Python quite plausibly shining in this regard within the next 2-3 years.
