Thanks :-)

I'm mainly interested in keeping this page a bit up-to-date because it's
the first google hit when searching for Perl 6.

But you're right that maintenance is a problem. Would you agree to
redirecting this page to http://perl6.org/ instead? I'd take care that
the other pages on dev.perl.org/perl6/ get equivalents on perl6.org, so
that we can slowly let perl6/ section die and redirect them.

Less maintenance burden for the perl.org admins, more up-to-date pages
for the Perl 6 folks (basically everybody in the Perl 6 community has
write access to perl6.org, so it's easier for us to update that site).

Cheers,
Moritz
