    FYI, this is a snippet from here.

    "The perldelta.pod document has not been updated in 5.6.1-TRIAL2; the only information about changes is the "Changes" file in the source distribution. But approximately 95% ofthe changes are bug fixes anyways."

    Mind you, this refers to ActivePerl build 624
