    Release notes for Git 2.3.5 for zOS.pdf says on page 2:

    perl 5.24 Note: This version of perl is not yet appropriate for general use.

    Is this still true?

    Hi Manfred,

    You can use Perl 5.24.0 independently. But it isn’t a GA version.

    Hi Tatyana,
    Still confused.

    Perl 5.24 is available as download, i.e. outside of git. Therefore, I would have assumed it is GA.

    When do you expect it to go GA?
    I know at least for us, we can not put non GA code into production
