|

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
This document aims to record the Perl source code releases.
|
|
|
|
=head1 INTRODUCTION
|
|
|
|
Perl history in brief, by Larry Wall:
|
|
|
|
Perl 0 introduced Perl to my officemates.
|
|
Perl 1 introduced Perl to the world, and changed /\(...\|...\)/ to
|
|
/(...|...)/. \(Dan Faigin still hasn't forgiven me. :-\)
|
|
Perl 2 introduced Henry Spencer's regular expression package.
|
|
Perl 3 introduced the ability to handle binary data (embedded nulls).
|
|
Perl 4 introduced the first Camel book. Really. We mostly just
|
|
switched version numbers so the book could refer to 4.000.
|
|
Perl 5 introduced everything else, including the ability to
|
|
introduce everything else.

=head2 PUMPKIN?
|
|
|
|
[from Porting/pumpkin.pod in the Perl source code distribution]
|
|
|
|
=for disclaimer orking cows is hazardous, and not legal in all jurisdictions
|
|
|
|
Chip Salzenberg gets credit for that, with a nod to his cow orker,
|
|
David Croy. We had passed around various names (baton, token, hot
|
|
potato) but none caught on. Then, Chip asked:
|
|
|
|
[begin quote]
|
|
|
|
Who has the patch pumpkin?
|
|
|
|
To explain: David Croy once told me that at a previous job,
|
|
there was one tape drive and multiple systems that used it for backups.
|
|
But instead of some high-tech exclusion software, they used a low-tech
|
|
method to prevent multiple simultaneous backups: a stuffed pumpkin.
|
|
No one was allowed to make backups unless they had the "backup pumpkin".
|
|
|
|
[end quote]
|
|
|
|
The name has stuck. The holder of the pumpkin is sometimes called
|
|
the pumpking (keeping the source afloat?) or the pumpkineer (pulling
|
|
the strings?).

|
|
|
|
The "diff lines kB" means that for example the patch 5.003_08, to be
|
|
applied on top of the 5.003_07 (or whatever was before the 5.003_08)
|
|
added lines for 110 kilobytes, it removed lines for 19 kilobytes, and
|
|
changed lines for 424 kilobytes. Just the lines themselves are
|
|
counted, not their context. The "+ - !" become from the diff(1)
|
|
context diff output format.

=head3 The patch-free era
|
|
|
|
In more modern times, named releases don't come as often, and as progress
|
|
can be followed (nearly) instantly (with rsync, and since late 2008, git)
|
|
patches between versions are no longer provided. However, that doesn't
|
|
keep us from calculating how large a patch could have been. Which is
|
|
shown in the table below. Unless noted otherwise, the size mentioned is
|
|
the patch to bring version x.y.z to x.y.z+1.
