I agree to Matt, there is nothing missing for an application server, it's
mainly a matter of installation and documentation, so for people not familar
with CPAN it's maybe hard to find.

I think "Application Server" is not a well defined term, so we may not get
consensus here what it is. What's about calling the section "Application
Servers/Toolkits running under mod_perl". Then it's up to the reader how
he/she like to see it.
