There was a lot of stuff removed from Learning Perl 3rd Ed that was in 2nd. It has been kind of cool to see what was removed. I guess they thought that some of the items were a: not important or relevant b: more advanced or c: deprecated (tm). I haven't seen anything added to 3rd that wasn't in 2nd though, I admit I don't reference that book that much anymore.
