Dear fellow monks,

I have been looking into the various web scraping frameworks in Perl, and gathered the following ones bit by bit from various Perlmonks discussions and blog posts. I'm listing them here for posterity, but my main purpose is to get the community's feedback on the current status of these and the best way to go about web spidering in modern Perl.

(Note that the comments are quick first impressions and maybe wildly inaccurate, corrections welcome)

Starting from:

The main reason I'm making this post is that I seem to be stumbling upon good scraping frameworks randomly, so it's quite possible I'm missing some really good framework that Google just hasn't divined to show me. So, I'd like to get the opinion of revered monks on this topic.
