The current status of fml8 is PRE ALPHA. The version is 7.98.x. We plan to assign version 7.99.x to fml 8 ALPHA through fml 8 RC (release candidate).

The current TODO is seen at http://www.fml.org/software/fml-devel/fml/doc/ja/todo/STATUS.html (Japanese only now, sorry). See the Chapter called Difference Between fml4 And fml8 on the changes between fml 4 and fml8.

It is verified that fml8 works on the following environemnt now. 

	perl 5.8.5   on NetBSD 2.0 
	perl 5.8.5   on NetBSD 1.6
	perl 5.6.1   on NetBSD 1.5.x (1.5 stable)		
	perl 5.6.1   on NetBSD 1.6				
	perl 5.6.1   on FreeBSD 5.2.1
	perl 5.00503 on FreeBSD 4.3 STABLE
	perl ?       on FreeBSD 4.6 RELEASE
	perl 5.00503 on FreeBSD 4.7 RELEASE-p3
	perl 5.00503 on FreeBSD 4.6.2 RELEASE			
        perl 5.6.1   on Turbolinux Server 8 (qmail)
	perl 5.6.1   on Redhat Linux 7.2 (postfix)		
	perl 5.00503 on Redhat Linux 6.2 (sendmail8.11.6)
