G'day stevieb,

Thanks for the reply. I have some questions.

The links you've provided are for an "unreleased, currently being worked on" version. Is there a "released, finished being worked on" version?

I see "... the list of Strawberry Perls available ..." mentioned in the opening remarks, in the available and fetch commands, and in the "Update Perls Available" section. I'm unclear as to what this actually refers. Are all versions on "Strawberry Perl Releases" available? Does "we'll update the local perls.json file" refer to something that berrybrew does dynamically, or an indication of something that will be made available in some later release?

In the "Configure Root Directory" section, I'm concerned about "This feature is incomplete ... things don't get properly reset yet.". I'll hold off further comment on that until I hear about the "released, finished being worked on" version that I asked about above.

I have a number of Perls installed on my machine: an ActivePerl and a Strawberry Perl already mentioned in the OP; I have Git Bash which installed its own Perl; Cygwin which also has its own Perl; and Perlbrew Perls. Are any of these affected by berrybrew?
