I've just finished a big update to the Perl 6 Workplace Wiki. It got big
enough that I started splitting it into subsidiary pages. The main page is
still pretty long, but I've added a table of contents to make it easier to
find things on it.

Please give it a look, and please add useful stuff to it.

http://rakudo.org/perl6/index.cgi # Main page.

http://rakudo.org/perl6/index.cgi#the_long_perl_6_super_feature_list

http://rakudo.org/perl6/index.cgi?glossary_of_perl_6_terms_and_jargon

PS: Once again, I want to thank the folks at perl.net.au for doing the
original "wikifying" of my Perl 6 Users FAQ on their Perl 6 Wiki a few
months ago. Being able to cut and past most of the pre-formatted content
with links already in place (with very minimal post-copy tweaking) saved a
tremendous amount of time.

Best regards,

Yes. (Actually, you could have done this yourself, but I was already making
several other additions.)

By the way, I want to encourage you and others to post Wiki-related
questions directly to perl.perl6.users, where anyone who is interested can
respond or do something. That's why I'm also replying to the mail list. I'm
just a big Perl 6 Wiki proponent, but not {a manager, moderator, expert,
admin, or anything like that}.

Anyway, please see:
http://rakudo.org/perl6/index.cgi?cpan6
This page now provides an overview of CPAN6.
Since this is a public Wiki, you and your friends can add whatever you want
here. (There is a very simple one-time registration process to get started.)

And see "Related Projects" at:
http://rakudo.org/perl6/index.cgi
This now links to the above page, and to cpan6.org.

And see "Other Parrot projects (not language-specific)" at:
http://rakudo.org/parrot/index.cgi?parrot
This now mentions Tim Bunce's DBI-on-Parrot.

Other items of interest (to the mail list):

Dave Rolsky made a great start at reorganizing the following page:
http://rakudo.org/perl6/index.cgi?the_long_perl_6_super_feature_list
Anyone else care to follow up?

I've added a section on "Upcoming Perl 6-Related Events" under "The Latest
Perl 6 Info" on the Perl 6 Wiki home page:
http://rakudo.org/perl6/index.cgi?perl_6
Please add upcoming events of interest.

Best regards,
Conrad Schneiker
