While it appears that Perl 6 has many impressive features, I'm much more interested in practical matters such as: module versioning, installation, & removal; the state of MoarVM; and the state of the tutorial book.
Rakudo/MoarVM began running this month. As Larry Wall said a few days ago "failed 179 test files ... which ain't too shabby at this point" http://irclog.perlgeek.de/moarvm/2013-12-21#i_8029074
Afaik the Perl 6 book is not really being updated. Maybe this info is of interest to you: http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=1033899
