5.10 isnt waiting on it. Its just that i think dave might have finished before 5.10's todo list is exhausted and we reach a feature freeze.

Frankly i appreciate the extra time as i have more regex improvements to deliver and with the nice weather, world cup, and life, ive not had as much time or inclination lately to focus on hacking perl. I mean Frankfurt doesnt get the much nice weather and I dont want to miss what we do end up getting.
