It's the 5.9.x track that has the experimentation. 5.8.x (like 5.6.x before it) are for slightly-behind-bleeding-edge adopters. Hardcore trailing edge adopters are still using Perl4 (which is also an even number :).
So, on Tuesday's, when I'm in my hardcore trailing edge mood, I should use use Perl4.
Sounds like a good excuse for another machine. ;-) I've got an old 68k box or two, is there a MacPerl4? Or should I download a really old version of netBSD?
(Heh. Wish I really did have time to get netBSD up on my old performa 550 and 630.)
