Why bother to learn to read when you can smell meat a mile away? If you live in Moscow, though, and if you've got an ounce of brain in your head you can't help learning to read - and without going to night-school either. There are forty-thousand dogs in Moscow and I'll bet there's not one of them so stupid he can't spell out the word 'sausage'. -- Mikhail Bulgakov, trans. Michael Glenny, "The Heart of a Dog" We are delighted to announce the first release candidate of version 32.1, the first maintenance release of version 32 of Perl 5. You will soon be able to download Perl 5.32.1-RC1 from your favourite CPAN mirror or find it at: https://metacpan.org/release/SHAY/perl-5.32.1-RC1/ SHA1 digests for this release are: 54bc4050e357b5926fa4f3d57dcc9b01e53bf1ed perl-5.32.1-RC1.tar.gz 527ae617b86719c304000194687a93191a1ff143 perl-5.32.1-RC1.tar.xz You can find a full list of changes in the file "perldelta.pod" located in the "pod" directory inside the release and on the web. ***Please, please, please*** test your code against perl-5.32.1-RC1. This is your last chance to point out any critical regressions before v5.32.1 ships "for real," and we'd rather fix things for v5.32.1 than for v5.32.2! The final v5.32.1 is expected to ship on 23rd January. Steve HayThread Next
