Howdy,

At my last firm we used ActiveState for 8-10 years. But they recently started end of lifeing versions of perl more then 2 steps from current.

And with the 64 bit perls they were getting less and less CPAN modules available, especially the ones we needed to operate with.

We gave up and went to Strawberry Perl, if you want 64 bit you really are asking for pain by staying with ActiveState.

Good luck on that though.
