Material to include in "Perl 6 Starter Kit"

[zoffixznet]

I'm developing an 8-16 page training kit that'll guide a person from installing the compiler, to writing one or two small programs, to learning how to find docs and humans for help.

The primary target audience will be Mongers/tech meet ups where the presenter could give these out and just walk the audience through it, for them to get some experience of what Perl 6 is like. Basically takes care of all the "I don't know what to present about" situations.

I know some in our community did exactly this sort of workshops in the past. I'm looking for some tips/ideas/types of exercises to include in this piece. Something that worked well for you in the past or didn't work at all.

Let me know.

The source for my Perl 6 programming book, directed at starters (and in fact, used for that) is free. It includes class notes, too. Feel free to fork or use it in any way at https://github.com/JJ/perl6em
