in thread Remove CGI.pm from Perl Core?

Granted, that's not a major argument for retaining CGI.pm in core...

That's right. It's not going away from the CPAN. All ejecting it from the core means is that, when you're installing custom code you wrote on the server, you may have to install CGI.pm as you should be doing for bug fixes and security improvements anyway.

    Oops!

    Very well taken. Think I hv not updated the server copy in > 18, 24? months. Shame on me and thank you for an important point + +.

    ... But I still don't want it taken out of core.


    If you didn't program your executable by toggling in binary, it wasn't really programming!
