If you search the archives of this mailing list, you will find link to a
tar ball of the code for the Perl interface.

You can also test your server simply by typing you GIFT hostname and
port into
http://viper.infotech.monash.edu.au/~davids/cgi-bin/PerlMRMLClient/PerlMRMLClient.pl
and clicking "Change Server".
