Re: New Perl on server

Perl 6 doesn't exist yet. The most recent production-ready version of Perl is 5.8.8. The front page of perl.org always lists the current version.

If your web server is running Unix or Linux then it will almost certainly already have a version of Perl installed. If your web server is running Windows, then ActivePerl is probably the easiest version to use (although Vanilla/Strawberry Perl might well change that).
