Another difference is that by the time Perl 6 was being worked on, there 
were other new things on the horizon.  People wanting something better than 
Perl 5 were looking at Python, Ruby, or Tcl.  You're not going to convince 
your customers to upgrade to a new flavor of duct tape when they're already 
playing with velcro.
