RakuAST: re-resolve `Call::Name` at CHECK to pick up a forward `sub`

  `Call::Name::PERFORM-BEGIN` resolves the call's name against the
resolver's lexical chain. A `my`-scoped `sub foo { }` declared later in the same scope is hoisted to the start of that scope, but the hoist happens at parse time of the declaration, which is *after* the call's BEGIN-time pass. The call therefore resolved against an ... (17 more lines)

RakuAST: skip compile-time trial-bind for type-capture generics

  `RakuAST::Call::Name::PERFORM-CHECK` walks the call's arguments and

timo ok, so the zef version of JSON::Fast hasn't shown up on raku.land and since `zef search` doesn't find it I assume it's also not on 360.zef.pm either 11:44

timo anything we can do? 11:51
lizmat I've pinged tonyo but no success yet :-(
I guess we give it another 24 hours before starting to think about alternatives 11:52
timo for right now i can also still upload JSON::Fast's latest version to cpan 11:56

lizmat timo: we've waited a long time for a JSON::Fast update... we can wait a little longer ? 12:05
timo tom seemed very upset about the lack of json fast update to fix the deprecation notice the other day
lizmat well.. we're all volunteers 12:12
sometimes people forget that 12:13
timo .o( I'd do paid moarvm development if there were a willing payer )
ab5tract timo: there's a grant process for that, no? 13:28
lizmat it is my understanding that there are no more funds for Raku grants with TPRF 13:31
and the Raku Foundation is not yet in a position to be even thinking about providing grants
disbot4 <librasteve> to get more $$$ and more helpers, we need to grow. to grow, we need to attract coders. to attract coders we need a reason to try Raku. DSLs are a reason to use Raku. thus slangify.org ;-) 13:35
guifa re funds, I normally donate the equivalent value of my ticket to TPRF, this year I can probs match it and earmark for Raku 14:24

FritzZaucker @timo About rakudo/rakudo#6231 You ask about reaching you directly. I am here, but not really familiar with IRC. So not sure this will work all that well, but I am willing to try. Email would also work for me. 14:43

ab5tract lizmat: so those recent funding announcements were coded as Perl and Raku but are in fact earmarked entirely for Perl? 20:34
lizmat I don't know: I have been told that there's no money earmarked for Raku anymore at TPRF 20:36
I'm surprised there is a perlfoundation.org/raku-development-fund.html ? 20:37
feels to me that they forgot to take that away? 20:38
