I'm all for abandoning perl 5.6 with 3.3, although I can accept it one way
or another. For those in need of perl 5.6 there will still be a 3.2.*.

Please don't say that. I think we'd like to envision the death of old versions and the support of the new tree only as soon as feasible! I'd prefer to write documentation on workarounds such as installing an alternate and newer perl alongside the distributions release, using cpan to install any necessary modules, and making sure that their install of SA runs with /usr/local/perl5.8/bin/perl. I've never tried this but the theory seems more than sound to me.

Regards,
KAM
