One of the best ways to pound 5.8 release candidates will be to run it and 5.6.1 against heaps of CPAN modules and make sure that everything which works on 5.6.1 works on 5.8.0.
In anticipation of this, I'd like to build a list of the modules that you all use in your day to day programming. This is the list of stuff that Must Work and when the time comes for 5.8 release candidates we can check them all out. (Or you can start early). Add your modules to the Wiki http://www.pobox.com/~schwern/cgi-bin/perl-qa-wiki.cgi?EssentialModules -- Michael G.
