Larry Wall and his many helpers released Perl 6 (now Raku) on
Christmas Day, 2015. It is a much more modern language than Python,
and it was designed as a "one-hundred year language." Check it out at
https://Raku.org.

I am just not sure, why perl6 is named to raku?
for instance, in my default installation of debian 11, it has python3
pre-installed.
$ python3 -V
Python 3.9.2
I think python3 is much different to python2, but it's still naming as
python.
If perl6 was just named as perl6, isn't it more clear?
