Ahh, that's great. Release it on CPAN so the rest of the world can view it. All I see is 1.08.

    Release it on CPAN so the rest of the world can view it.

    XML::Simple version 1.08_01 has been on CPAN since February. The CPAN shell recognises a _nn suffix to mean that a release is an 'unstable' version (thanks to samtregar for pointing this feature out to me). If you type this command in the CPAN shell ...

    cpan> install XML::Simple

    ... then you'll get the latest stable version (without an underscore suffix). However you can install a specific version like this ...

    cpan> install G/GR/GRANTM/XML-Simple-1.08_01.tar.gz

    And you can list available versions with the 'author' command ...

    cpan> a GRANTM

    The 1.08_01 release has proven to be so stable that I haven't had a pressing need to re-release it with a new version number. I will though.
