Hi Henry,

We're working on getting the DBD- modules ready for 5.10 as part of a  
larger overhaul of PPMs over the next few months. I can't give you a  
hard deadline as to when they'll arrive, though, as it depends on a  
few different factors -- the amount of time we can devote to PPM goes  
up and down depending on perl's release schedule itself, etc. -- so if  
you're looking to use those modules right away, I'd go with 5.8.8 for  
now. Switching over to 5.10 would be very simple when/if you'd like to  
upgrade when we have those modules available.


Cheers,
