in reply to Unicode::UTF8 and perl Unicode compatibility

G'day vsespb,

The current version of Perl (5.18.1) supports Unicode 6.2. This support started with the previous version (5.18.0) - see perl5180delta.

I'm not aware of a table (or similar) specifically mapping Perl versions to Unicode versions; however, the deltas listed here should document changes in Unicode support.

For testing edges cases, etc. across multiple Perl version, these may prove useful:

Other Perl Unicode documentation that may be helpful:
