today Perl is 16 years old. Happy birthday Perl! You can read more about
the timeline of Perl releases in [1]perlhist.pod and at
[2]history.perl.org." Happy birthday Perl. You are now old enough to get
a US drivers license.

Update : to celebrate this event, Richard Clamp [3]released perl 1.0.16,
which you will be able to fetch at
