in thread Fuzzy String matching with index?

Both these threads contain ultimately futile, heated technical debate.
Not ultimately futile, in that they ultimately lead demerphq to work on adding trie optimization to perl's regex engine. :)

    When is 5.10 likely to shrug off is mythical status and become manifest?

    Seems I first heard about all the good stuff that was gonna come in 5.10, defined-OR etc. way back in 2002.


    Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
    Lingua non convalesco, consenesco et abolesco. -- Rule 1 has a caveat! -- Who broke the cabal?
    "Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
    In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

      From a short chat I had with Rafael, the "shopping list" for 5.10 is complete, that is, he isn't waiting for any features to be implemented anymore. I guess there will be a phase where things settle down, but I expect 5.10 within the next 6 months.
