Let me start off by saying that I think translating the documents is a Good Thing(tm), and nothing I say below should be taken as to discourage the task.

That said, if the docs change so much that you have to go digging through a CVS repository at least once a week (or even once a month) to get "the bleeding edge", perhaps its not a good canidiate for translation, unless your team is really willing to keep up with that level of activity. Out-of-date documentation is often worse than no documenation at all. Add to this that it is inevitable that something will be lost in the translation (something you just have to live with), and you have a great recipe for confusion.

I would stick to the docs that come with the currently released version of perl.

I wanted to explore how Perl's closures can be manipulated, and ended up creating an object system by accident.
