We did not release it on CPAN. We announced it in mod_perl list first and wanted to get offers for naming the Module (Apache::Site sounds too much pretentious :) ). We consider that code is not good as possible and thought gurus will point to weak parts of code. After all, gurus can say - it is comletely useless module, because there are better solutions and ... bla bla bla... :) We don't want to publish JustAnotherSillyApacheFramework :) And another, main trouble - permanent lack of time for documenting :(( > > > Let's come back to Agenda... > > It is pure model-view-controller application.

Agreed, realization of all business logic outside database is real PITA, just mySQL is more popular... PS: Forgot to say that there is another way - Application Service Providing. Just now 3 independent system works on http://agenda.samara.net - Demo Russian, Demo English and Production version of Company... It should be muuuuch cheaper, but there is another bottleneck - not all companies will agree to post payments for projects and other confidential information to Application which hosted somewhere in snowy Russia with bears on the streets :)))) -------------------------------------------- Sergey Polyakov aka "BeerBong" Chief of WebZavod http://www.webzavod.ru Tel. +7 (8462) 43-93-85 | +7 (8462) 43-93-86 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
