New Server - Which Perl 5.8.x or 5.10.x?

[Vibe]

Hi everyone,

I am working on building a new server and have a quick question that I hope someone can shed some light on. Considering that Perl 5.8.9 is the last version of the 5.8.x branch, would this be a good time to move to Perl 5.10.1?

Does anyone know of any potential issues with services that would be run under DA (e.g. Exim etc.) using Perl 5.10.1?

Thanks so much for any suggestions!

Both should be fine.

Hi scsi - thanks so much for your quick reply. I may go ahead with 5.10.1 and see if I experience any issues.

DA is running fine with 5.10
