"When I announced the development of Perl 6, I said it was going to be a community design. I designed Perl, myself. It's limited by my own brain power. So I wanted Perl 6 to be a community design"

In this quote, Larry Wall is talking about the advancement of Perl 6, a programming language. He discusses that he created Perl himself, which it is limited by his own brain power. For that reason, he wanted Perl 6 to be a community design, meaning that it would be developed by a group of people, instead of simply someone. This would permit a more expansive and innovative design, as the cumulative brain power of the community would be able to come up with more ideas than simply one person. Wall's choice to make Perl 6 a neighborhood style was a smart one, as it enabled a lot more extensive and innovative style than if he had designed it himself.
