Top five things I think are missing from Rakudo (Score:1)
The top five things holding me back from using Rakudo for anything but experimental playing with Perl 6 are (in order of imporatance):
1. lack of lazy evaluation
2. s/// is not implemented
3. it cannot be installed ("removing or moving the build tree will cause the binary to stop working")
4. I cannot easily tell what parts of the spec are implemented and which are not
5. The REPL has executes every line in its own scope making lexical variables (and therefore the REPL itself) next to useless.
I may be wrong abou
