Perl 5, Version Numbers, and Binary Compatibility

,----[ Quote ]
| As mentioned in What Perl 5's Version 
| Numbers Mean, the written Perl 5 support 
| policy must explain several guidelines and 
| their implications.
| 
| If you've ever upgraded between major 
| versions of Perl 5 on the same machine, 
| you've likely noticed that you have to 
| install new versions of modules. Various 
| resources spread across the Internet 
| suggest the use of CPAN autobundles, but 
| even that's likely enough to make you curse 
| a little bit as you babysit a CPAN shell 
| for an hour or two to get back to where you 
| started.

Why SDL Perl Matters

,----[ Quote ]
| I read a book proposal years ago on the
| subject of teaching kids to program with C++.
| "After a week," it said, "children will know
| enough to create their own simple text games
| and animations."
|
| I was perhaps six years old when I saw my
| first minicomputer. I flipped open the first
| page of the manual and typed in the lines
| verbatimâexcept I left off the line numbers,
| likely thinking that they were merely a
| convenience for readers. Perhaps I've had good
| taste from the beginning.
|
| My typing skills were, as you might expect,
| abysmal. Even so, I had feedback from the
| computer within fifteen minutes or less. If
| I'd had to spend a week learning things to
| move characters around on the screen, I'd have
| given up.
