About:
Perl is a high-level, general-purpose programming language that makes easy things easy and hard things possible. It is optimized for scanning arbitrary text files and system administration. It has built-in extended regular expression matching and replacement, a dataflow mechanism to improve security with setuid scripts and is extensible via modules that can interface to C libraries.

Would be great, if new versions would be announced at freshmeat.

The latest version is 5.8.2, not 5.8.0.

Luckily they seem to be keeping this page up to date nowadays. The latest version is 5.8.8 and the site was promptly updated.
