Perl 5 is an allround programming and scripting language, worldwide in use for over 20 years. Perl 6 is being developed since 2000, and Perl 6.0.0 will be released by Christmas 2015.

The feel of Perl 5 is mostly maintained in Perl 6, like TIMTOWTDI (There Is More Than One Way To Do It), there are quite some changes in syntax and the way to program (everything in Perl 6 is object-oriented, to name something).

Can we port a heavily used Perl 5 module to Perl 6, keeping all the goodies it has? What are the hurdles that need to be jumped? How far can one get?

The module Text::CSV provides the handling of data as Comma-Separated Values in many different ways.
