5.8 is perfectly backward compatible and no exception has been thrown in my
period of it's usage.
I have recently upgraded from 5.6.1 to 5.8 and my old scripts run perfecly
fine.
So any script that is good enuff for 5.6 is good enuff for 5.8

Thanks
Aman

Subject: could 5.8 make a difference in place of 5.6 ?


   I am writing and/or modifying some perl scripts - they have 
  they r for test automation  for installation of some product and/or its
patches , 
  scripts have basic requoirement as perl 5.6.1 must be installed on the
machine wherever r scripts  
  gona   fired , 
   now my question could it make a difference(such as script may not run) if
it s an upgraded 5.8 
   version   instead of 5.6 ?

  Regards 
  Pradeep
