It's 2012, and Perl 6 is getting macros.

Macros are a sort of code templates. They help you reduce boilerplate in your programs. They're in Lisp, so they must be cool.

I've started implementing macros in Rakudo, one of the leading Perl 6 implementations. This talk is about that effort, and the ways it has given me a new perspective on Perl 6.
