To be fair, python 3 now has a complete, usable implementation, whereas perl 6 does not.

That said, I very much like what I've seen/heard of perl 6, and will certainly learn it once it's production-ready.

Perl6 is actually pretty useable as is now also. I wouldn't say production ready but It really is real close and I can use it for personal projects already.
