=head1 NAME
-[ this is a template for a new perldelta file. Any text flagged as
-XXX needs to be processed before release. ]
-
perldelta - what is new for perl v5.11.3
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This document describes differences between the 5.11.2 release and
the 5.11.3 release.
-If you are upgrading from an earlier release such as 5.11.3, first read
-the L<perl5XXXdelta>, which describes differences between 5.11.3 and
-5.10.0
-
-=head1 Notice
-
-XXX Any important notices here
+If you are upgrading from an earlier release such as 5.11.1, first read
+the L<perl5112delta>, which describes differences between 5.11.1 and
+5.11.2
=head1 Incompatible Changes
=item Filehandles are blessed directly into C<IO::Handle::>, as C<FileHandle> is merely a wrapper around C<IO::Handle>.
-XXX Some description of why this change was made would be nice -- e.g. what
-the benefit that justifies the incompatibility -- dagolden, 2009-12-20
+The previous behaviour was to bless Filehandles into L<FileHandle/>
+(an empty proxy class) if it was loaded into memory and otherwise
+to bless them into C<IO::Handle::>.

=head1 Core Enhancements
-XXX New core language features go here. Summarise user-visible core language
-enhancements. Particularly prominent performance optimisations could go
-here, but most should go in the L</Performance Enhancements> section.
-
=head2 Unicode version
Perl is shipped with the latest Unicode version, 5.2, October 2009. See
though most are suppressed. An installation can choose to change which
get written. Instructions are in L<perluniprops>.
-=head1 New Platforms
-
-XXX List any platforms that this version of perl compiles on, that previous
-versions did not. These will either be enabled by new files in the F<hints/>
-directories, or new subdirectories and F<README> files at the top level of the
-source tree.
-
=head1 Modules and Pragmata
-XXX All changes to installed files in F<cpan/>, F<dist/>, F<ext/> and F<lib/>
-go here, in a list ordered by distribution name. Minimally it should be the
-module version, but it's more useful to the end user to give a paragraph's
-summary of the module's changes. In an ideal world, dual-life modules would
-have a F<Changes> file that could be cribbed.
