There was an Old Lady whose folly,
Induced her to sit in a holly;
Whereon by a thorn, her dress being torn,
She quickly became melancholy.

Verse": Limericks for the 1846 and 1855 editions of "A Book of
Nonsense"
We are diverted to announce the second release candidate of version
34.1, the first maintenance release of version 34 of Perl 5.
You will soon be able to download Perl 5.34.1-RC2 from your favourite
CPAN mirror or find it at:
https://metacpan.org/release/SHAY/perl-5.34.1-RC2/
SHA256 digests for this release are:
*perl-5.34.1-RC2.tar.gz:
28eb0996ab3a90eb6e6193787b92f85e72a4de9da41f2c468554c6c9ba7dc9dc
*perl-5.34.1-RC2.tar.xz:
abc3463b56c833ceb376cf906a4cd6ca61a7f52a092d0e1c7229d4e46dd50a8a
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-5.34.1-RC2.
This is your last chance to point out any critical regressions before
v5.34.1 ships "for real," and we'd rather fix things for v5.34.1 than
for v5.34.2!
The final v5.34.1 is still expected to ship on 13th March.
