I didn't imply that :-)

A complete implementation requires work on the internal data representation
and MOP, work on the parser for the syntactic sugar (classdef parsing,
?-syntax for class access, @-syntax for overloaded method call in the
parent classes...), work on the tree evaluator (for package scope handling).
So 3.2 is not a realistic target. For now, I'm mainly thinking about the
first part.
