Well, I'm not looking at Catalyst; I have my own "home grown" framework
which works and I'm not tempted to change it, since it is working.
But I do like your "grow and extend" Embperl ideas.

Embperl can be frustrating.  It's wonderfully powerful, and I love Perl,
and it can do heaps, but there *are* places where things don't "just
work", and I've had to do workarounds.

I also get the impression that Gerald is kind of running out of steam as
far as developing Embperl goes.  I know that I reported a bug in
Embperl::Form::Validate last year, but there still hasn't been an
official bug-fix release for that.  (Yes, it's in SVN, but that doesn't
help when one is installing things via CPAN)

The fact that a lot of Embperl is written in C is an advantage and a
disadvantage.  An advantage because, of course, it makes it lovely and
fast.  A disadvantage because it makes it harder to understand (and
therefore contribute to) the code.
