The URL http://www.maz.org/libservlet/dist/libservlet-0.9.1.tar.gz has entered CPAN as file: $CPAN/authors/id/I/IX/IX/libservlet-0.9.1.tar.gz size: 79634 bytes md5: b091b143fe57bc05214ec9db6eb40d6d This is the first public version of libservlet. You can't do much with it yet, since no Perl servlet containers exist yet. However, I wanted to get some eyeballs on it, and it would be great if somebody got excited enough to volunteer help. There are a few outstanding issues and some documentation work needs to be done. 95% of the work is done tho, which means I can turn my attention back to Wombat and hopefully get a working container released in the next week or so. For more information, see http://www.maz.org/libservlet/. A mailing list has been created - mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]. Feedback is most certainly welcome! (blurb from web site:) The Servlet API for Perl (libservlet) is a formulation of the Java (TM) Servlet API in Perl. The current version of the API is 2.3. While the servlet concept originated with Java (TM), its component model is quite natural for Perl as well. By writing servlet applications and deploying them in a servlet container, application authors can spare themselves the effort of writing commonly needed web application infrastructure components for each new project. Furthermore, servlet applications are portable between deployment environments; they can be executed in any servlet container using any process model with only a few configuration changes and no application code changes. Servlet applications are insulated from changes in vendor or platform and are able to portably take advantage of standard web infrastructure services offered by any servlet container.
