When "big" features are announced with a release, undoubtedly someone in the community will post slides or a write up on the new release, why you should start using it in production tomorrow, yadda, yadda... given/when, defined-or, and named captures are a few that come to mind, I think that was back in 5.10, and there was certainly a lot to write around that time.
I wasn't able to find any write ups online for the latest release, either there were no newsworthy new features, or my google-foo is weak. I know about perlXdelta.pod, that shows the delta between the last release of perl, but is there a way to programmatically get a synopsis of new features (and/or fixes) in perl-Y since perl-X? Specifically, I'm curious what great new features I should be using that were introduced after 5.10 (not that I'm even using all of those yet), but would like to learn how to fish for these answers myself (if possible) rather than posting to a list :) Thanks. Will
