What can YOU do with Perl 6 Now, Today, This minute?

Introduction

Add tasks, exercises, and projects that can be done today with perl 6.

Include brief explanations:

How to run?
What is required?

Cite benchmarks (e.g. vs Perl 5, Python, Ruby, etc.), if possible.

Each item should link to a page that gives a summary of its status (possible, buggy, depends on X) and includes or links to examples, benchmarks, articles, code, etc.
Some places to check for potential content ideas:

Run Some Code

Get and make Rakudo:

Get and Make parrot

svn co https://svn.perl.org/parrot/trunk parrot
perl ./Configure.pl
make

use parrot languages/perl6/perl6.pbc some_code.p6
Try make perl6 and then you can use ./perl6 some_code.p6

Download some perl6 examples (from the github perl6-examples repo)

git clone git://github.com/eric256/perl6-examples.git

Download more perl6 examples (from the pugs repo)

svn co http://svn.pugscode.org/pugs/examples/

Solve Mathematical / Computer Science Problems and Exercises

File/Directory Access

Random Access
Streams
Find
Rsynch

Networking / IPC

CGI (see November wiki below)
NMS scripts
Servers
Forking
IPC
Apache Modules

Database Access

DBI (under development) (but you can do something today)

Parsing

ini files (simple task, just do it!)
Apache logs
Aeronautical / Weather Data Feeds

Graphics

Pie chart
Fractals
Render Vector / Bitmap Images
Ascii Art
3D Graphics

User Interface

WIMP GUI
Curses
Command line arguments/options

Web Applications

November - wiki engine (simple CGI, HTML::Template and URI ports live in repo)

Use (Some) Perl 5 Modules from Perl 6

Using Perl 5 Embedding

Use Other Languages from Perl 6

Rakudo supports inline PIR (Pimchaud blog post)
