in reply to DBI for old perl

jobber is right, CPAN does keep older versions which is very nice. However, I would look at 1.21. It looks like that is the last one that had require 5.004;

It looks like there were quite a few changes in this one over older versions - that's why I would suggest trying it out.

    BackPAN, on the other hand, has everything ;)(ZCAN)
