  So at this point, can we expect to see MacPerl 5.8 before 5.8 is released? ;)

  Congrats, pudge. It's cool to have MacPerl that up to date.

    Heh, no, no MacPerl 5.8 before perl 5.8. It won't be 5.8 until jhi says so. :) Besides, I won't be ready for some time, with all the testing, and I am probably going to take the occasion of perl 5.8 to add some more features to MacPerl (specifically, improvements to the MacPerl built-in editor) which will lengthen the beta process; however, at this point, it is very likely I will release a MacPerl 5.8 alpha within days of perl 5.8's release.

      Of course, MacPerl 5.6.1, as we all remember from the release announcement, is The Most Advanced perl Ever. :)
