AFS Perl API Version 2.6.0
I am pleased to announce the AFS Perl API 2.6.0 release
The AFS module bundle is a dynamically loadable extension to
Perl. It gives the AFS user and administrator access to many of
the AFS programming APIs, allowing you to make these calls
directly from Perl, rather then processing the output of a
command. The AFS module bundle is a thin layer above the low-level
AFS APIs.
This release is mostly to please the Perl community
- have a clean version numbering system
- detect automated CPAN testings
Where To Get It
The version 2.6.0 is now available at
http://www.MPA-Garching.MPG.de/~nog/perl/AFS-2.6.0.tar.gz

This release should work on all UNIX/Linux platforms which have
AFS API interfaces and the appropriate C compilation environment.
