Don't worry - 5.20 will work. And yes there are differences - the largest 
is the supported unicode version. From the admin point of view, you'll not 
see any differences.
To track down all changes from 5.20 to 5.24 you need to read all perldelta 
documents for all dev steps 
http://search.cpan.org/dist/perl-5.24.0/pod/perldelta.pod
Maintening Strawberry Perl for assp is much more easy than Active Perl - 
except the installation of NetSNMP::agent, which needs a MSVC compiler 
instead of gcc.

Circling back on this.  With the current 2017 dev versions of ASSP, it 
there any functional difference or downside if we're using ActiveState 
5.20 (on Windows) vs your relocatable Strawberry perl zip?  

I don't want to be running a different version of Perl than you're using 
for dev, but it may be a while before I can properly migrate (and test) 
production to this new version.  I know 5.20 will be supported until at 
least 2018 - but does that mean the idea is to have it fully supported, as 
in all things will work as well under it as 5.24 or future newer versions?

Active Perl requires currently, that you complie the needed XS modules by 
yourself.

-- or are you suggest Strawberry for Windows (which I've never touched)?

Thanks for letting us know.  Has any testing been done with 5.24.1 Per 
ActiveState on Windows?  I believe you didn't recommend newer than 5.20.x 
on Windows due to lack of module support in the repository.

Hi all, 

with the 1.1.2017 the development perl base is switched to Perl 5.024001 - 
5.24.1. 

NOTICE: 

Perl 5.24 has still an experimental state in relation with assp. The first 
2017 dev. build will solve all unexpected warnings in perl 5.24.1 (also in 
the yesterday published new plugin versions). 
Target is, to give Perl 5.24 the production ready state within the first 
quater of 2017. 

EOL - announcement for the next two years: 

Starting with the third quater of 2017 (1.7.2017) ASSPv2 will no longer 
run with Perl 5.10! 
Perl 5.12 (5.12 3) may be used, but will not be supported with the start 
of 2018 (1.1.2018). 
Within 2018 - all perl versions lower than 5.020000 (5.20.0) will get an 
unsupported state in relation with assp V2.
