upgrade to Perl 5.10

Hello Perl Community,

I am currently using "v5.8.8 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread" and 
would like to upgrade to v5.10.  Since this is for my company use, I 
really don't want to screw this up.  I would appreciate any help or 
suggestions you may have.

 From what I have read (release notes,etc)
I should do the following:

1).  ppm install PPM-Profile
2).  ppmprofile save C:\profile.xml
3).  uninstall Perl v5.8.8
4).  clean install Perl v5.10
5).  ppm install PPM-Profile
6).  ppmprofile restore C:\profile.xml     #This should restore all 
of my non-standard packages into Perl 5.10  correct?

I also have Perl Dev Kit v8.1 installed on my system, from what I 
read in the documentation, this should still work with Perl 5.10.  Do 
I have to reinstall this Dev Kit after installing Perl v5.10?

I also heard that Perl Dev Kit v8.21 is available, how can I "update" 
my Dev Kit to the latest v8 version?

Cheers
Daniel
