 Replying to [comment:1 mojca@…]:
 > David, in order to avoid opening too many tickets I'm attaching my
 proposal for a `perl5` port that unifies all perl5-related ports. I didn't
 add the patchfiles yet (there are tiny differences, so I would need to
 rename them first). It's not exactly related to the issue at hand, but
 what do you think?

 Mojca, I think the idea of consolidating the current separate perl5.*
 ports into perl5 as subports makes sense and is in line with current
 practice in other port series.  Of course, all but one of these will
 hopefully be removed in the not too distant future but we need to come to
 a consensus on exactly how that will be done.

 Personally, taking a page from other perl managers, I would propose to add
 subports for the current unstable perl version, the current upstream git
 master (blead) and perhaps a generic alias to the current stable perl.
 One might call these perl5-stable perl5-devel perl5-blead.  I think that
 this would be useful to users who are actually developing perl modules and
 would like to test against these versions without concern as to which
 version is stable, unstable, etc.

 Also I think it would be appropriate for you to place yourself as the
 first maintainer rather than myself given your contributions in this area
 over the past year or so.
