Read http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/docs/ActivePerl/CHANGES.html for a detail change log. Perl 5.8 versions are called the 800 builds whereas Perl 5.6 versions are the 600 builds.

goose,

As far as we know, there are no code compatibility issues. The only problem is that some Perl 5.6 modules are not compatible with 5.8 so you'll have to upgrade them.
