When will ISO standardize Perl 6 or Python 4?

 No.926939

 No.926984>>926995

>>926355 (OP)

Most computer programming languages are not standardized by ISO. I don't know if Perl 6 or Python 4 will be.

If Perl 6 were to undergo the ISO standardization process, based on the rate of development of the Perl 6 spec and implementations over the years, I would expect the Perl 6 standard to be published around the time the Earth is absorbed by the Sun during its red giant phase in about 7,500,000,000 years.

One of the thing that got C, C++, JS, Java and Ruby popular is ISO standardization.

Why can't Python undergo such a process as well?


 No.926999

>>926995

They don't care about an ISO number for Python.


 No.927000>>927002

>>926995

Because there are devs who still use Python 2.x and will never use 3.x.


 No.927002>>927003

>>927000

Well what about Perl 5? If Perl 6 is crap?


 No.927003>>927008

>>927002

>>927002

Full-blown schism


 No.927008

>>927003

I meant giving Perl 5 ISO status


 No.927011>>927226

What does ISO buy you exactly? Is someone else going to make another Perl implementation? (I have my doubts)


 No.927013>>927099

>>926995

>Ruby popular is ISO standardization.

Incorrect. Ruby was popular long before it was standardized by ISO.


 No.927099

>>927013

But it gives people incentive to not move to another programming language


 No.927226>>927228

>>927011

People'll start making non meme software using it.

What is the wild thing? And, how wild is the wild thing? These are questions that virgins usually want to know. I certainly don't know. There is an odd stigma attached to being a virgin, no less being a 41-year-old virgin. Some have mentioned that they can easily spot a virgin. Now, how does that work? Virginity has to do with the wild thing. No wild thing equals virgin. Wild thing equals a whole new life. Or so I have been told. How about no wild thing equals monk? Being a monk means no wild thing forever. That sounds good to me. So, I contacted The Monastery and indicated my interest to become a monk. Naturally, the monks were excited at adding to their numbers. The life of a 41-year-old virgin is very boring as you can well see. It is the same old thing everyday. Wake up. Drink coffee. Read e-mail. (I had to put myself on some of those Listserv things just to get mail. There is nothing more pathetic than to log on and see the old "No mail" message.) Read newsgroups. (Although humorous at times, these newsgroups are getting to be all the same. One way or the other the wild thing comes up. Is that all people think about? Even computer nerds are obsessed with the wild thing.) Eat lunch. Lapse into a coma. Come to. Go to the gym. Listen to nonsense. Return to Roach Motel. Eat dinner. Log on for no particular reason. Reflect on being a 41-year-old virgin. Then, lapse into a real coma. Does not being a virgin change this? Will I log on less? Will I not lapse into a coma? Will I read all the newsgroups with a renewed vigor? Will I anticipate listening to the nonsense at the gym? And, what if I had a babe? Will that change the big picture? It boggles the mind, doesn't it?

drop the copypasta


 No.927464>>927473

What is the point in standardizing languages that have only 1 or 2 implementations? Don't be stupid.


 No.927473

Python 3 has multiple...
