I was a grad student at A&M when he first moved there. I went
to a talk he gave once, and happened to bump into him at a
reception afterward. I asked him if he had been paying any
attention to the development of Perl 6, specifically the design
process.
To paraphrase, he said "No, I'm pretty busy and I really don't
have time to keep up with everything like that." The he said,
"Do you know where the refreshments are?"
