The assigned topic-- should you choose to accept it-- is grammars (think regexps plus), which is what I'm going to be messing with, but really anything is okay.

I'm once again going to be trying to get into perl 6 regexps/grammars, possibly playing around with something like the much reviled task of ad-hoc html page scraping (and actually it doesn't look like there's too much in the way of perl 6 modules yet to do stuff like dom tree-building). But the way things go, we tend to just talk about whatever comes up. More info is over here: https://www.meetup.com/San-Francisco-Perl/events/254773258/ Oh, and if you're thinking you might attend, it'd be helpful to punch the RSVP button over at meetup. I don't particularly need the information, but I think some newbies might be encouraged by a higher attendance count. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I use Debian Stretch. Browsing perl6.org, I see that a source tarball is available for *nix platforms. But, I have found that building and installing software from source tends to destabilize my system (likely, PEBKAC). I prefer Debian packages -- first, from the Debian project; second, from the vendor. Searching Apt, I found and installed the "perl6" package: 2018-09-25 18:17:59 dpchrist at vstretch ~ $ perl6 -v This is Rakudo version 2016.12 built on MoarVM version 2016.12 implementing Perl 6.c. LP6 uses "Rakudo Star version 2018.04 built on MoarVM version 2018.04." Searching https://backports.debian.org/, I don't see any perl6 or rakudo packages. Any comments or suggestions?

I'm going to call this one an "open study" session (even more open than usual) without an announced topic. Myself, I'm starting to get the hang of perl 6 grammars, I'm continuing to mess around with the Set (and Set-like) object types, and I'm interested in exploring the evils of "augment" sometime soon.... Oh, if anyone's got a copy of the new "Learning Perl 6" book, you might bring it by so we can all take a look at it-- I just ordered a copy [1] but I don't think I'll have it by then. More info (or just ask me!): https://www.meetup.com/San-Francisco-Perl/events/xmldtpyxmbnc/ [1] I ordered my copy via bn.com myself: I don't do amazon, and oreilley.com has gone so trendy it takes me a few dozen clicks just to find out they're useless.
