in thread 5.53 vs 5.6 vs 6
I upgrade when I can, but don't consider it a very high priority. If a major version came out (e.g. Perl 6) that would be a different story. Right now there are not many limitations in the language that really affect my day-to-day coding. We've come so far from Perl's humble beginnings that it is almost a point of diminishing return. Not that Perl is perfect yet, and it is good to always strive for perfection, but I don't see many things being added to it that would make people run out and say "How did we ever do without this?"
