The first beta release of perl 5.004 based MacPerl 5.1.4r4 is now available at ftp://err.ethz.ch/pub/neeri/MacPerl/Beta/Mac_Perl_514b1_appl.bin Be careful when installing it, I've experimentally switched to a different (and much cheaper to license :-) installer but have not fine-tuned the settings correctly, so the installer will probably overwrite the "MacPerl f" directory in the root volume you pick. The release doesn't look that bad, and I'd of course appreciate feedback, but I wouldn't recomment installing it unless you are reasonably experienced.
