That's a dull statement to be made in a forum that deals with
open source software. It may be true, that everybody who had
ever used perl-mode is already dead, but the code is there
and can be investigated and compared until the end of time
(when skynet takes over, you know).

Measuring by the number of commands a mode provides,
perl-mode sucks, with only 9 commands, and cperl-mode is
more than 6 times better (62 commands).
