Perl 5.43.10 represents approximately 4 weeks of development since Perl
5.43.9 and contains approximately 21,000 lines of changes across 240 files
from 20 authors.
Excluding auto-generated files, documentation and release tools, there were
approximately 17,000 lines of changes to 120 .pm, .t, .c and .h files.
Perl continues to flourish into its fourth decade thanks to a vibrant
community of users and developers. The following people are known to have
contributed the improvements that became Perl 5.43.10:
Christian Hansen, Craig A. Berry, Daniel Tang, Dmitrii Kuvaiskii, E.
Choroba, Eric Herman, James Cook, James E Keenan, Karen Etheridge, Karl
Williamson, Leon Timmermans, Lukas Mai, Nicolas R, Paul Evans, Philippe
Bruhat (BooK), Richard Leach, Robert Rothenberg, Shirakata Kentaro, Steve
Hay, Tony Cook.
The list above is almost certainly incomplete as it is automatically
generated from version control history. In particular, it does not include
the names of the (very much appreciated) contributors who reported issues to
the Perl bug tracker.
Many of the changes included in this version originated in the CPAN modules
included in Perl's core. We're grateful to the entire CPAN community for
helping Perl to flourish.
For a more complete list of all of Perl's historical contributors, please
see the AUTHORS file in the Perl source distribution.
Support for the 5.40.x release series will end shortly.
Please refer to perlpolicy for version support information.
We expect to release version 5.44.0, the next major stable release, on
or around May 20, 2026.
Enjoy,
