That's fine with me, but Hugo wrote:

    Perl 5.9.0 is now available, and a somewhat more official announcement
    will follow when mirrors have had a chance to catch up. In ~CPAN/src or
    ~CPAN/authors/id/H/HV/HVDS:
                           
           4688 Jul 18 23:31 perl-5.9.0.readme
        9478487 Oct 27 02:59 perl-5.9.0.tar.bz2
       11905830 Oct 27 03:17 perl-5.9.0.tar.gz

I don't really care whether it's Oct 27 or Oct 26  (although I can 
imagine the heated debated between Perl historians 50 years from now),
as long as it's mentioned in the pod.

And of course, 10/27, 3:17 WET is 10/26 22:17 EDT (or 21:17 EST), so
both the 26th and 27th could be considered 'right'.
