I'm no Perl user, but surely 800 is pretty good for a one year old language? How many did Perl 5 have when it was one year old? (That's a trick question: CPAN was officially launched about year after Perl 5 came out; see here http://history.perl.org/PerlTimeline.html)

Fair point, but it's also fair to note that Perl 6 development began 17 years ago.

Well you don't develop modules for a language yet to be released.
