After a recent patch
of mine to blead split // is around three times as

I'll be giving a lightning

if the conference organizers will let me.

Agreed. 5.6 was the Unicode/UTF-8 Perl version, 5.8 the "Unicode done better" (or at least, differently) version... and it looks like 5.10 will be the "everything's changed a bit, and for the better" perl.Re:Cool...

I just hope the release happens sooner rather than later. I have a project coming up that I will need to move to the "latest version of Perl" whatever it may be at the time we start.
