----------
If there's a plan for 5.8.8, it goes roughly like this

0: All changes that apply to maint are integrated from blead

1: Changes should be in blead by midnight (GMT) on the 16th October 2005

2: RC1 will probably appear within a week
...

jpo

PS - It would be great to have it included in FC-5 ;)

Get this RC1 into FC before the FC5test1 freeze.  We can help to prove 
that 5.8.8 is ready for release, or find any bugs that need fixing 
quickly.  The huge delay of 5.8.7 would be really bad... we need to push 
harder this time.

That depends, are you an upstream perl developer, or can you help to 
foster the development and testing required upstream to get 5.8.8-rc and 
final out ASAP?  We are running on a tight schedule here.

Perl 5.8.8 RC1 is still two weeks away.
