29. Language
Proposal:
Perl 6 is coming. Some code in Perl 6 is already being uploaded to the
CPAN. A new "language" field is an important part of the structure we need
to allow Perl 6 to reuse the existing CPAN rather than to try to reinvent
the whole thing. My recommendation would be that this be an optional field
with an implicit value of 'perl5' --Jesse
Comments:
* At this time, META.yml is specifically oriented around Perl 5. To suppose
multiple languages, much more than just a language flag would need to be
changed. --Adam K
