Regarding online versions of the latest docs, you can always use perldoc; it looks like it's up to date.

I realize that this means you're still leaving the Monastery and agree that it would be nice to update the local docs. I thought it worht pointing out because a) we often caution against needlessly reinventing the wheel, b) to raise awareness of that site (in case some monks aren't aware of it, and c) to provide an alterntative (aka a workaround) until the local copies are updated.
