+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.
+
+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.
