Greetings, Last week two release candidates for what will become perl 5.8.1 were put together and placed on CPAN available for dowload and testing. Those of you who might want to test the second release candidate should pick up: http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/J/JH/JHI/perl-5.8.1-RC2.tar.gz then run a test build and perhaps report `make test` results here or to the perl5-porters mailing list. Please note that I no longer have access to either OS/390 or z/OS hence I cannot do any testing. But I'll try to answer questions posted to this list. Good luck. Peter Prymmer (third post attempt - apologies for any duplication).
