RE: 5.53 vs 5.6 vs 6

in reply to 5.53 vs 5.6 vs 6

Ok, let's start a little poll:
  1. 5.0 patchlevel 5 subversion 3
  2. I use this version because I use FreeBSD, where Perl is an integral part of the systems sources. 5.0053 is the version currently delivered with FreeBSD 4.0
  3. Actually I'm not as good enough in Perl (read: don't know all of the features) to miss any feature. 5.0053 gives me (right now) everything I need.

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    I agree with le and wouldn't bother to reply except that you want a headcount. Same perl version, same operating system.

    1. 5.0 patchlevel 5 subversion 3, which came standard with my distribution.
    2. GNU/Linux (2.2.14)
    3. Will be upgrading to 5.6 RSN :), just because I'd like to learn more about the new features.

    1. 5.00404
    2. I mostly use Debian 2.1, and 5.00404 is a package in the "stable" distribution.
    3. 5.6.0
    4. I'm dabbling with OpenBSD 2.7 and it ships with 5.6.0.
          cheers,
