Difference between perl 5.8 and 5.10

Question

I'm compiling some information related to the differences between 5.8 and 5.10. Can someone please point out the major differences, or tell me where I can begin my research?

5.8.0? 5.8.5? 5.8.8? also helpful to know the *purpose* of your compilation. — ysth, Nov 26 '12 at 20:11
