    As if to confirm Perl's descent into obscurity they give the release a name that 95% of the people of the world can't read. The cherry on top of the public relations disaster that …

    I work for a very large company that is supposedly "leading the charge" in the IPv6 space. Three years ago all groups were supposed to have converted completely to IPv6 by the end …
