=head2 What's the difference between Rakudo and Perl 6?

Rakudo is an implementation of Perl 6. It's currently the most developed, but
there have been other implementations in the past and should be others in the
future. Perl 6 is the definition of the language. Many times the two names will
be used loosely and interchangeably.

=head2 As a Perl 6 beginner what should I install?

If you are a Linux or Mac user you probably want to download Rakudo Star and
install via compilation (a simple process) the MoarVM version available from
L<http://rakudo.org/downloads/star/|http://rakudo.org/downloads/star>.

If you are a Windows 32 or 64 bit user then Rakudo Star binaries are also
available at the rakudo site. You will need Windows Git to use panda. 

There should be Linux and Mac binaries available shortly from vendors and third
parties. Although vendor versions may be outdated. 

=head2 As an intermediate to advanced user I want to track Rakudo development.

Install L<rakudobrew|https://github.com/tadzik/rakudobrew> which resembles
Perl 5's perlbrew and the equivalent Python and Ruby tools.

=head2 Where can I find good documentation on Perl 6?
