I am working with a university on a web project which entails setting up a
new server. We're going with Red Hat Linux on Dell hardware (RAID 5
configuration), but I am not sure which version of Perl to recommend. I am
very used to 5.005_03, but 5.8 is the current release.

Do I have a large learning curve associated with going the 5.8 route as
opposed to 5.005_03?

If I want to port scripts, will they need to be rewritten?

Are there significant benefits to using 5.8?

On one hand, I want to keep up with the Joneses and take advantage of the
most available power, but on the other hand, I'm used to one flavor and you
know what they say about fixing things that ain't broke.

Opinions, comments, suggestions?
