The documentation is still online at
http://docs.activestate.com/

There are some web forums that kind of duplicate the topics of
some mailing lists here:
http://community.activestate.com/main
Personally I'm no fan of web forums, so I never go there. So I have
no idea how much traffic they get. I agree that the Perl mailing
lists have less traffic than 10 years ago. All Windows related stuff
happens here on perl-win32-users; the other perl-win32-* lists are
more or less dead and should probably be decommissioned.
On the other hand there seem to be a lot more blogging about Perl
than there was 10 years ago. :)
