perlron has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi Monks,
The background is im running out of time to develop a custom solution for a web customer. In the meantime, ive got a hang of CGI::Application while focussing on the rest of the site.

Id like to know if i can get my hands on "trivial/simple" "customizable" bulletin board or discussion forum software from the perl source repositories.
Since i have a hang of CGI::Application and a little Dancer , any BB's made using these two gr8 frameworks would be really fast for me to hack into and deploy. I am charging the client for developing a website, so i infer this is a commercial purpose im going to use the BB for.

I hope this is the right forum to solicit such an opinion. else please redirect.

    There is battie by tinita. It doesn't seem to have a Plack adapter, but as it works as CGI, it should be fairly quick to get up and running.

      Thank you.

      this should do the job. it does look customizable (Pg<->MySQL) for starters and the license looks Ok.

      However is there any way i can see usage stats on this module ? like if any one else has used it and their experience .
      I dont see anything on CPAN / metaCPAN for "battie"
