Joost has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi all,

This is something that's been bothering me for some time: is there any place that you can quickly find which feature was implemented in which perl version? AFAIK the only place this is documented is in the various perldelta manpages, but those are indexed by version, and there are currently 14 of them, which makes it annoying to search for a specific feature.

I'm looking for something like:

source filters
implemented in 5.6.0 (? from memory, can't find it in perldelta)
threads.pm
implemented in 5.6.0.
etc. etc.

Does anything like this exist? If it doesn't, do you think it would be useful?

Joost.

update: since apparently this doesn't really exist I took a stab at it myself. Let me know what you think.
