Activity on the mailing lists and IRC channel has been steadily declining
for the last couple of years. This signals to me that the rate at which
people are adopting Shorewall is waning (I grant that the documentation has
gotten better over

Good point.

Everyone,
It looks like we need to see how large a perl package for leaf branches
is.
I'm not having much luck finding embedded builds of the perl engine.
I'll keep looking.

Everyone,
It looks like there are some embedded distributions that successfully
built relatively small perl packages. See:

Tom,
KP and Eric found the smallest one Microperl. The other one is Miniperl.

Tom,
It looks like OpenWrt and NSLU2-Linux have microperl ipkg builds
available.

Maybe we can glean useful information from existing binary builds to
generate our own package.

We have indeed, but like Kp said it's around 350 kbytes compressed and
only contains the Perl (micro) interpreter. No Perl modules or any
