I agree to you with this goal (and that's what I done partly, for database
and sessions, in Embperl, what doesn't mean integration couldn't be
better...) also I don't believe we will see it soon. I don't like to decide
if Embperl (and the other modules) are Applikation Servers or not. That
depends on how you define the term. You define it in another way then Matt
does. That's why I suggest to call it "Applikaton Servers/Toolkits", because
it's more a toolkit to build an Application Server of the way you define it,
then a ready to run product.
