That was the nadir of perl releases. Starting in 2010, they've released a new major version each year.

The first serious perl compiler was just released a week ago: http://rperl.org/

Some people moved on, some people stayed.

How do come to the opinion that rperl is the first "serious perl compiler"? It certainly is not.

I hope with Perl 6, some people will also come back.
