I'm finding myself in a perpetual state of either no time to work on it,
or when there is time, having insufficient brain power left to properly
assimilate everything that needs to be considered to do any of the
functions justice. Looking ahead, I do not see this state changing for
the better in the foreseeable future.
It's my hope that someone none(@Larry) can and will pick this effort up.
I will give whatever assistance I can to anyone choosing to do so. Drop
me a line.

On behalf of pugs committers, we will gladly adopt this task, which is in
the pugs repository already at docs/S29draft.pod, as well as having a set
of foundation classes that correspond to all these object methods in
docs/src/ (of course, most of the actual code is in src/Pugs/Prim.hs etc)

Drop the feeling of guilt for not having written enough and it will already
be better. Thanks for what you have done, it is an outstanding achievement!

If you could make sure your last revision corresponds to what is in the
pugs repository, that will be more than enough...

I'll be your resident firehose drinker. Feel free to send me your
comments, concerns and death threats where they are relevant to S29
and / or the above mentioned foundation classes. I will summarize and
compile and forward on to the relevant parties as needed.
I was pointed to your p6l post (<4283AAC1.6060106[at]rodadams.net>) by
Autrijus. I have already worked a bit on implementing/porting the
functionality of builtins that I want in Perl6 (by stealing from Perl5),
I can try to take over S29.

While I find myself in the same situation from time to time, I hope that
I'll survive by having #perl6 support me and the wiki-style of
development-via-widespread-commit...
If there is somebody else who wants to uphold the banner, consider their
offer instead of mine ;)
