The following people are known to have contributed the improvements that became Perl 5.34.1:</p> <p>Andrew Fresh, Atsushi Sugawara, Chris 'BinGOs' Williams, Dan Book, Hugo van der Sanden, James E Keenan, Karen Etheridge, Leon Timmermans, Matthew Horsfall, Max Maischein, Michiel Beijen, Neil Bowers, Nicolas R., Paul Evans, Renee Baecker, Ricardo Signes, Richard Leach, Sawyer X, Sergey Poznyakoff, Steve Hay, Tomasz Konojacki, Tony Cook, Yves Orton.</p> <p>The list above is almost certainly incomplete as it is automatically generated from version control history. In particular, it does not include the names of the (very much appreciated) contributors who reported issues to the Perl bug tracker.</p> <p>Many of the changes included in this version originated in the CPAN modules included in Perl's core. We're grateful to the entire CPAN community for helping Perl to flourish.</p> <p>For a more complete list of all of Perl's historical contributors, please see the <i>AUTHORS</i> file in the Perl source distribution.</p> <h1 id="Reporting-Bugs"><a class="permalink" href="#Reporting-Bugs">#</a><a id="Reporting"></a>Reporting Bugs</h1> <p>If you find what you think is a bug, you might check the perl bug database at <a href="https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues">https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues</a>.
