One thing I forgot to mention was database access.
I haven't tried it at all.
There should be no reason you can't successfully and efficiently
access the ns_db interface with the existing perl tcl_api
functionality like so:
my $db = Ns::tcl_api('ns_db');
my $handle = $db->gethandle;
$db->0or1row($handle, $sql);
You should also be able to make additional connections to any database
of your choice via the usual Perl DBI modules (though you'll need to
be careful to compile eg. DBD::Pg against the same postgres libraries
you use for nsdb).
Various options for using nsdb in a more native way will be explored
at some time in the future.
