Perl 5.22.3-RC3 is now available!

  Between two dishes, equally attractive
    And near to him, a free man, I suppose,
    Would starve to death before his teeth got active;

  So would a lamb 'twixt two fierce wolfish foes,
    Fearing the fangs both ways, not stir a foot;
    So would a deerhound halt between two does;

  So I can't blame myself for standing mute,
    Nor praise myself: for I must needs so do,
    Suspended 'twixt two doubts, alike acute.

    -- Dante Alighieri, trans. Dorothy L. Sayers and Barbara Reynolds,
       "The Divine Comedy", Cantica III: Paradise, Canto IV

We are delighted to announce the third release candidate of version

***Please, please, please*** test your code against perl-5.22.3-RC3.
This is your last chance to point out any critical regressions before
v5.22.3 ships "for real," and we'd rather fix things for v5.22.3 than
for v5.22.4!

The final v5.22.3 will ship no sooner than Friday 19th August 2016.
