While I'm happy to build my own perl on Linux, as I did the other day to try out the experimental perl 5.36 for_list feature, I feel much less inclined to do that on Windows, where I've come to rely on good old Strawberry Perl.

The mysterious (to me) disappearance of the hyper-productive adamk, an immense driving force behind 🍓🦪 and author of 188 CPAN distributions, is a huge loss to the Perl community. Though I hope he returns to the Perl universe, that is looking increasingly unlikely.
