It does not sound to me like the OP was making demands. Rather it seems that perfectly reasonable questions are being ignored and unwarranted aspersions being handed out instead. Someone asked why the upgrade was needed and he answered that question. I think it is time to return to thoughtful on topic responses to the original question. When is the upgrade of Perl 5.10.0 to be expected and what has been the cause of the delay?
