If you are aiming for a wide audience you need to assume that they have
never heard of catalyst let alone version 5.8. Therefore they will want
to know what it is and who is using it in the first few lines.

so

"Catalyst is the premier web development framework for Perl" 

and 

"More and more companies are turning to Catalyst as a core web
application technology. Many of these websites, such as XXX, comfortable
scale to XXX unique page views daily"

would be good hooks to draw people in.
