in thread Perl Advocacy: Sometimes java is bitter...

well, for what it's worth, echo is working on a mod_perl book for O'Reilly with another guy. Should be ready RSN ;-)

I haven't worked with mod_perl for a couple of years now. My memories of it were that the mailing list was incredibly vibrant, but no-one really had the time to do anything so mundane as to keep the web page up to date. Perhaps not the wisest strategic move, but that's the way it was. I suspect things are much the same as that these days too.

    mod_perl is still alive and kicking and i myself use it all the time. I love mod_perl! Ask maverick sometime about the web framework that he is developing which uses mod_perl, Apache::DBI, Apache::Session, and HTML::Template. I personally think it kicks the dog doo out of Servlets/JSP, but it's disadvantage is that you have to be well versed to get it up and running (no pointy-clicky).
