Well, we've got a pretty good description of perl 6's regexes
courtesy of A5. Anyone care to take a shot at either modifying the
regex compiler to deal with them, or writing a perl 6 regex compiler?

Working on it. I've got greedy quantifiers (including <$n,$m>),
interpolated arrays and scalars, enumerated character classes, code
assertions, embedded blocks. It's all static, so runtime-compiled regexes
aren't going in. Hypotheticals will be hard, but should be doable. Same
with the various cut operators ("::").

Yow. Cool. Pop a note to perl6-language if you want, to see about
grabbing some folks to help out.

I did *say* at YAPC that I wrote one before breakfast, but nobody believed
me. I'll put it in my CVS if people want a poke at it.
