| 103 | + |
| 104 | +cperl 5.26.5 represents approximately 5 months of development since cperl |
| 105 | +5.26.4c and contains approximately 2,700 lines of changes across 63 files from |
| 106 | +2 authors. |
| 107 | + |
| 108 | +Excluding auto-generated files, documentation and release tools, there were |
| 109 | +approximately 390 lines of changes to 17 .pm, .t, .c and .h files. |
| 110 | + |
| 111 | +The following people are known to have contributed the improvements that became |
| 112 | +cperl 5.26.5: |
| 113 | + |
| 114 | +Reini Urban, Yves Orton. |
| 115 | + |
| 116 | +The list above is almost certainly incomplete as it is automatically generated |
| 117 | +from version control history including the perl and cperl repos. In particular, |
| 118 | +it does not include the names of the (very much appreciated) contributors who |
| 119 | +reported issues to the Perl bug tracker and the cperl github issues. |
| 120 | + |
| 121 | +Many of the changes included in this version originated in the CPAN modules |
| 122 | +included in Perl's core. We're grateful to the entire CPAN community for |
| 123 | +helping Perl to flourish. |
| 124 | + |
| 125 | +For a more complete list of all of Perl's historical contributors, please see |
| 126 | +the F<AUTHORS> file in the Perl source distribution. |

| 132 | +=head1 Reporting Bugs |
| 133 | + |
| 134 | +If you find what you think is a bug, you might check the perl bug database |
| 135 | +at L<https://rt.perl.org/> . There may also be information at |
| 136 | +L<http://www.perl.org/> , the Perl Home Page. |
| 137 | + |
| 138 | +If you believe you have an unreported bug, please run the L<cperlbug> program |
| 139 | +included with your release. Be sure to trim your bug down to a tiny but |
| 140 | +sufficient test case. Your bug report, along with the output of C<perl -V>, |
| 141 | +will be sent off to perlbug@perl.org to be analysed by the Perl porting team. |
| 142 | + |
| 143 | +If you think it's a cperl specific bug or trust the cperl developers more |
| 144 | +please file an issue at L<https://github.com/perl11/cperl/issues>. |
| 145 | + |
| 146 | +If the bug you are reporting has security implications which make it |
| 147 | +inappropriate to send to a publicly archived mailing list, then see |
| 148 | +L<perlsec/SECURITY VULNERABILITY CONTACT INFORMATION> |
| 149 | +For details of how to report the issue. |
