The cygwin package is already updated. Under [Experimental] so far as 
perl also, until all remaining perl libraries have been updated.

Just a few required patches:

Activestate are still missing key support items for 5.10 so it's probably t=
o early for a formal build of Win32::GUI that supports 5.10. You should fin=
d it easy enough to build your own version of Win32::GUI.

What's your experience of 5.10? Do you find it faster? Does it use less mem=
ory etc.?

Cheers,

jez.

I've just played around a bit and have not tested it yet,
nor used it in production.

 From the look and feel nothing changed.

Class::DBIx found a bad perfomance problem with my ($a,$b) = @_; 
assignment at the top of a sub. I couldn't apply the patch to the 
release version 5.10.0 yet. I only applies to blead.
