The reasoning is following: - According to the Perl developers the current stable release is 5.8.3. We really should not stick to the old, not really maintained release. - The developer of the p5-IO-INET6 port is working with perl version 5.8.x. I can easily test on perl 5.6.x and 5.8.x., therefore maintain the port. Testing on 5.005 is much more difficult for me ... - Please speak up (in a personal e-mail) if you want to keep the compatibility with 5.005_03. If I receive more than one e-mail, I will continue maintain the 5.005_03 compatibility. - Anyway there is a method to apply a patch if a certain perl version is not installed? Best Regards,
