This is a specification for Perl 6 Regexes meant to be used to incorporate them into arbitrary other languages. A very few constructs have been stripped out and a few others simply made no sense outside of the context of Perl 6 (or would have to be implemented in a language-specific way).
This document is very directly derived from the specification in the Perl documentation site at Perl 6 Regexes and matches that document fairly closely in terms of sections so that readers can refer there for more Perl 6-specific details.
Current status: DRAFT, awaiting input from others.
