Read perldelta.pod They come with your Perl distribution. Debian based distro installs them in /usr/share/perl/5.10.0/pod/perl*delta.pod and Fedora seems to have them in /usr/lib/perl5/5.10.0/pod/perl*delta.pod I think we stick to something like early 5.8 to support platforms with infrequent updates to Perl.
