--- Comment #3 from Paul J Murphy <paul at inetstat.net> ---
N.B. Perl 5.20 is not actually end of life for critical security fixes. 
perl.org's policy is actually 3 years from release of 5.x.0.  5.20.0 was
released on 2014-May-27, so its real end of support life for critical security
fixes (despite other statements on perl.org which directly contradict this) is
actually 2017-May-27.

See http://perldoc.perl.org/perlhist.html and
http://perldoc.perl.org/perlpolicy.html
