Perl 6
Audrey Tang: Revision 2
The primary force behind Pugs, the original Perl 6 compiler implementation in Haskell that targets at least four different backends, including JavaScript. Ended the long "Dark Ages" of compiler-side Perl 6 development -- see Tang's Time-line in When will Perl 6 be released?. Spread "-Ofun" and commit bits to the masses. Also deserving of a MacArthur prize.
