in thread What is mod_perlite?

I'm a hypothetical user. My hypothetical $4.95 host won't install anything besides what's there, which is apache, php, and a perl interpreter. I have ftp access only. Can your project do the job?

    I think the trick here is to get mod_perlite to the same status as mod_php, i.e. be provided by cheap web hosts in a way mod_perl isn't (because of the overhead of configuration on their part, and lack of isolation from other customers' code).

    Obviously no cheap web host will do this today since mod_perlite doesn't exist yet. But if there something viable and a demand for it maybe they will provide this kind of support for Perl by default the same way they do for PHP.

    Did that clear anything up?

      Yes, it did. The answer is "no," then. It might be informative to post when mod_perlite has some adoption and can look at it again.
