Tim Bunce debunks Perl myths
Tim Bunce has put together a presentation debunking three pervasive myths about Perl:
- Perl is dead
- Perl is hard to read / test / maintain
- Perl 6 is killing Perl 5
That last one has a sort of corollary: "Perl 6 is taking too long", which presupposes that anyone can say how long Perl 6 should be taking.
