Perl 5.11.0 Released

[sl4shd0t]

jamie points out that Perl 5.11.0 was released yesterday, as well as a schedule for future 5.11.x releases, planned for the 20th of every month. Jesse Vincent encouraged testing of the new (development) version, saying, "If you write software in Perl, it is particularly important that you test your software against development releases. While we strive to maintain source compatibility with prior releases wherever possible, it is always possible that a well-intentioned change can have unexpected consequences. If you spot a change in a development release which breaks your code, it's much more likely that we will be able to fix it before the next stable release. If you only test your code against stable releases of Perl, it may not be possible to undo a backwards-incompatible change which breaks your code."pa href="http://developers.slashdot.org/story/09/10/03/1357211/Perl-5110-Released?from=rss"img src="http://developers.slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?from=rssamp;op=imageamp;style=h0amp;sid=09/10/03/1357211"/a/ppa href="http://developers.slashdot.org/story/09/10/03/1357211/Perl-5110-Released?from=rss"Read more of this story/a at Slashdot./ppa href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/7dy1e5-_caccH4VsN8KsfFfJEu8/0/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/7dy1e5-_caccH4VsN8KsfFfJEu8/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/abr/a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/7dy1e5-_caccH4VsN8KsfFfJEu8/1/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/7dy1e5-_caccH4VsN8KsfFfJEu8/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/a/pimg src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Slashdot/slashdotDevelopers/~4/7YPAKFP5V4U" height="1" width="1"/
