5.22 5.22 is upstream’s ‘current’ version, and so by our normal policy it’s what we should pick. The only reason to go with 5.20 instead was if there was a known problem with 5.22 that we couldn’t patch (and even then, we should probably just address it with upstream and go with 5.22). Once we move to 5.22, we should get rid of all of the old perls and just switch perl5 to be 5.22 and stop trying to support multiple perl versions. -- Daniel J.
