For the last two or three years perl 6 has soaked up all the concerted forward thinking energy, I suspect. Fortunately, perl 6 is on the home stretch now.



Fortunately the perl6 think tank does filter down into perl5 so hence we see things like Moose, smart matches, given/when, Perl6::* and more.
