^^^^ Other Languages (relevant to Perl 6)
* ""Perl Best Practices"<http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/perlbp/>" by Damian Conway. Even though this currently applies to Perl 5, most of the principles also apply to Perl 6. This book is a semi-officially recommended guideline for people developing core Perl 6 modules and tests.
* ""Confessions of a Used Programming Language Salesman; Getting the Masses Hooked on Haskell"<http://research.microsoft.com/%7Eemeijer/Papers/ICFP06.pdf>" (Warning: PDF link) by Erik Meijer.
* ""Traits"<http://www.iam.unibe.ch/%7Escg/Research/Traits/>" are one of the "Big Ideas" that have influenced #perl6 design discussions.
* Some "Paul Graham"<http://www.paulgraham.com/bio.html> essays on programming language design. Although Graham's background is Lisp and he is the designer of "Arc"<http://www.paulgraham.com/arc.html>, many of his themes are highly relevant to understanding (1) why Perl 6 is going to be a huge success, and (2) how you can take great advantage of Perl 6.
** ""The 100 Year Language"<http://www.paulgraham.com/hundred.html>" (2003-04) is a classic programming language essay on how we should view Perl 6 — even though it's not about Perl 6.
** ""Why Arc Isn't Especially Object Oriented"<http://www.paulgraham.com/noop.html>"
** ""Design Philosophy"<http://www.paulgraham.com/design.html>"
** ""Five Questions About Language Design"<http://www.paulgraham.com/langdes.html>" (2001-05)
** ""Six Principles for Making New Things"<http://www.paulgraham.com/newthings.html>" (2008-02)
** ""The Venture Capital Squeeze"<http://www.paulgraham.com/vcsqueeze.html>" (2005-11) "During the Bubble, a lot of people predicted that startups would outsource their development to India. I think a better model for the future is David Heinemeier Hansson, who *outsourced his development to a more powerful language instead*."
** ""Programming Bottom-Up"<http://www.paulgraham.com/progbot.html>" (1993)
** ""Revenge of the Nerds"<http://www.paulgraham.com/icad.html>" (2002-05)
** ""The Python Paradox"<http://www.paulgraham.com/pypar.html>" (2004-08)

* ""Perl Best Practices"<http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/perlbp/>" by Damian Conway. Even though this currently applies to Perl 5, most of the principles also apply to Perl 6. This book is a semi-officially recommended guideline for people developing core Perl 6 modules and tests.
* ""Confessions of a Used Programming Language Salesman; Getting the Masses Hooked on Haskell"<http://research.microsoft.com/%7Eemeijer/Papers/ICFP06.pdf>" (Warning: PDF link) by Erik Meijer.
* ""Traits"<http://www.iam.unibe.ch/%7Escg/Research/Traits/>" are one of the "Big Ideas" that have influenced #perl6 design discussions.
* Some "Paul Graham"<http://www.paulgraham.com/bio.html> essays on programming language design. Although Graham's background is Lisp and he is the designer of "Arc"<http://www.paulgraham.com/arc.html>, many of his themes are highly relevant to understanding (1) why Perl 6 is going to be a huge success, and (2) how you can take great advantage of Perl 6.
** ""The 100 Year Language"<http://www.paulgraham.com/hundred.html>" (2003-04) is a classic programming language essay on how we should view Perl 6 — even though it's not about Perl 6.
** ""Why Arc Isn't Especially Object Oriented"<http://www.paulgraham.com/noop.html>"
** ""Design Philosophy"<http://www.paulgraham.com/design.html>"
** ""Five Questions About Language Design"<http://www.paulgraham.com/langdes.html>" (2001-05)
** ""Six Principles for Making New Things"<http://www.paulgraham.com/newthings.html>" (2008-02)
** ""The Venture Capital Squeeze"<http://www.paulgraham.com/vcsqueeze.html>" (2005-11) "During the Bubble, a lot of people predicted that startups would outsource their development to India. I think a better model for the future is David Heinemeier Hansson, who *outsourced his development to a more powerful language instead*."
** ""Programming Bottom-Up"<http://www.paulgraham.com/progbot.html>" (1993)
** ""Revenge of the Nerds"<http://www.paulgraham.com/icad.html>" (2002-05)
** ""The Python Paradox"<http://www.paulgraham.com/pypar.html>" (2004-08)
