 =head1 DESCRIPTION
 
-This document describes differences between the 5.27.0 release and the 5.27.1
+This document describes differences between the 5.27.1 release and the 5.27.2
 release.
 
-If you are upgrading from an earlier release such as 5.26.0, first read
-L<perl5270delta>, which describes differences between 5.26.0 and 5.27.0.
-
-=head1 Core Enhancements
-
-=head2 L<C<delete>|perlfunc/delete EXPR> on key/value slices
-
-L<C<delete>|perlfunc/delete EXPR> can now be used on key/value slices,
-returning the keys along with the deleted values.
-L<[perl #131328]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=131328>
-
-=head1 Security
-
-=head2 Default Hash Function Change
-
-Perl 5.27.1 retires various older hash functions which are not viewed as
-sufficiently secure for use in Perl. We now support four general purpose
-hash functions, Siphash (2-4 and 1-3 variants), and  Zaphod32, and StadtX
-hash. In addition we support SBOX32 (a form of tabular hashing) for hashing
-short  strings, in conjunction with any of the other hash functions provided.
+If you are upgrading from an earlier release such as 5.27.0, first read
+L<perl5271delta>, which describes differences between 5.27.0 and 5.27.1.
 
-By default Perl is configured to support SBOX hashing of strings up to 24
-characters, in conjunction with StadtX hashing on 64 bit builds, and
-Zaphod32 hashing for 32 bit builds.
+=head1 Notice
 
-You may control these settings with the following options to Configure:
+XXX Any important notices here
 
-    -DPERL_HASH_FUNC_SIPHASH
-    -DPERL_HASH_FUNC_SIPHASH13
-    -DPERL_HASH_FUNC_STADTX
-    -DPERL_HASH_FUNC_ZAPHOD32
+=head1 Core Enhancements
 
-To disable SBOX hashing you can use
+XXX New core language features go here.  Summarize user-visible core language
+enhancements.  Particularly prominent performance optimisations could go
+here, but most should go in the L</Performance Enhancements> section.
 
-    -DPERL_HASH_USE_SBOX32_ALSO=0
+[ List each enhancement as a =head2 entry ]
 
-And to set the maximum length to use SBOX32 hashing on with:
+=head1 Security
 
-    -DSBOX32_MAX_LEN=16
+XXX Any security-related notices go here.  In particular, any security
+vulnerabilities closed should be noted here rather than in the
+L</Selected Bug Fixes> section.
 
-The maximum length allowed is 256. There probably isn't much point
-in setting it higher than the default.
+[ List each security issue as a =head2 entry ]
 
 =head1 Incompatible Changes
 
-=head2 Comma-less variable lists in formats are no longer allowed
-
-Omitting the commas between variables passed to formats is no longer
-allowed.  This has been deprecated since Perl 5.000.
-
-=head2 The C<:locked> and C<:unique> attributes have been removed
-
-These have been no-ops and deprecated since Perl 5.12 and 5.10,
-respectively.
+XXX For a release on a stable branch, this section aspires to be:
 
-=head2 C<\N{}> with nothing between the braces is now illegal.
+    There are no changes intentionally incompatible with 5.XXX.XXX
+    If any exist, they are bugs, and we request that you submit a
+    report.  See L</Reporting Bugs> below.
 
-This has been deprecated since Perl 5.24.
+[ List each incompatible change as a =head2 entry ]
 
-=head2 Opening the same symbol as both a file and directory handle is no 
longer allowed
+=head1 Deprecations
 
-Using C<open()> and C<opendir()> to associate both a filehandle and a dirhandle
-to the same symbol (glob or scalar) has been deprecated since Perl 5.10.
+XXX Any deprecated features, syntax, modules etc. should be listed here.
 
-=head2 Use of bare C<< << >> to mean C<< <<"" >> is no longer allowed
+=head2 Module removals
 
-Use of a bare terminator has been deprecated since Perl 5.000.
+XXX Remove this section if inapplicable.
 
-=head2 Setting $/ to a reference to a non-positive integer no longer allowed
+The following modules will be removed from the core distribution in a
+future release, and will at that time need to be installed from CPAN.
+Distributions on CPAN which require these modules will need to list them as
+prerequisites.
 
-This used to work like setting it to C<undef>, but has been deprecated
-since Perl 5.20.
+The core versions of these modules will now issue C<"deprecated">-category
+warnings to alert you to this fact.  To silence these deprecation warnings,
+install the modules in question from CPAN.
 
-=head2 Unicode code points with values exceeding C<IV_MAX> are now fatal.
+Note that these are (with rare exceptions) fine modules that you are encouraged
+to continue to use.  Their disinclusion from core primarily hinges on their
+necessity to bootstrapping a fully functional, CPAN-capable Perl installation,
+not usually on concerns over their design.
 
-This was deprecated since Perl 5.24.
+=over
 
-=head2 C<B::OP::terse> no longer exists.
+=item XXX
 
-Use C<B::Concise::b_terse> instead.
+XXX Note that deprecated modules should be listed here even if they are listed
+as an updated module in the L</Modules and Pragmata> section.
 
-=head2 Use of inherited AUTOLOAD for non-methods is no longer allowed.
+=back
 
-This was deprecated in Perl 5.004.
+[ List each other deprecation as a =head2 entry ]
 
-=head2 Use of strings with code points over 0xFF is not allowed for
-bitwise string operators
+=head1 Performance Enhancements
 
-Code points over C<0xFF> do not make sense for bitwise operators.
+XXX Changes which enhance performance without changing behaviour go here.
+There may well be none in a stable release.
 
-=head2 Setting C<${^ENCODING}> to a defined value is now illegal
+[ List each enhancement as a =item entry ]
 
-This has been deprecated since Perl 5.22 and a no-op since Perl 5.26.
+=over 4
 
-=head2 Backslash no longer escapes colon in PATH for the -S switch
+=item *
 
-Previously the C<-S> switch incorrectly treated backslash ("\") as an
-escape for colon when traversing the C<PATH> environment variable.
-[perl #129183]
+XXX
 
-=head2 the -DH (DEBUG_H) misfeature has been removed
+=back
 
-On a perl built with debugging support, the C<H> flag to the C<-D>
-debugging option has been removed. This was supposed to dump hash values,
-but has been broken for many years.
+=head1 Modules and Pragmata
 
-=head1 Deprecations
+XXX All changes to installed files in F<cpan/>, F<dist/>, F<ext/> and F<lib/>
+go here.  If Module::CoreList is updated, generate an initial draft of the
+following sections using F<Porting/corelist-perldelta.pl>.  A paragraph summary
+for important changes should then be added by hand.  In an ideal world,
+dual-life modules would have a F<Changes> file that could be cribbed.
 
-=head2 Use of L<C<vec>|perlfunc/vec EXPR,OFFSET,BITS> on strings with code
-points above 0xFF is deprecated.
+[ Within each section, list entries as a =item entry ]
 
-Use of these is nonsensical, as C<vec> is a bit-oriented operation,
-which operates on the underlying UTF-8 representation these strings must
-be in, and will likely give unexpected results.
+=head2 New Modules and Pragmata
 
-=head2 Some uses of unescaped C<"{"> are no longer fatal
+=over 4
 
-Perl 5.26.0 fatalized some uses of an unescaped left brace, but an
-exception was made at the last minute, specifically crafted to be a
-minimal change to allow GNU Autoconf to work.  This code is heavily
-depended upon, and continues to use the deprecated usage.  Its use of an
-unescaped left brace is one where we have no intention of repurposing
-C<"{"> to be something other than itself.
+=item *
 
-That exception is now generalized to include various other such cases
-where the C<"{"> will not be repurposed.  This is to get real experience
-with this more complicated change now, in case we need to issue a dot
-release if we find other things like Autoconf that are important to work
-around.
+XXX
 
-Note that these uses continue to raise a deprecation message.

-The perl C<sprintf()> function (via the underlying C function
-C<Perl_sv_vcatpvfn_flags()>) has been heavily reworked to fix many minor
-bugs, including the integer wrapping of large width and precision
-specifiers and potential buffer overruns. It has also been made faster in
-many cases.

+XXX Descriptions of platform agnostic bugs we know we can't fix go here.  Any
+tests that had to be C<TODO>ed for the release would be noted here.  Unfixed
+platform specific bugs also go here.
 
-Exiting from an C<eval>, whether normally or via an exception, now always
-frees temporary values (possibly calling destructors) I<before> setting
-C<$@>. For example:
+[ List each fix as a =item entry ]
 
-    sub DESTROY { eval { die "died in DESTROY"; } }
-    eval { bless []; };
-    # $@ used to be equal to "died in DESTROY" here; it's now "".
