Anonymous Monk, my only constraints are Perl 5.8.8*, current versions of modules which still work with 5.8.8., and my own understanding of perl and programming in general. My goals for the present of still the same as you see on my home node and the list of things I need to get a grip on on my scratchpad.

* I have begged my web host and cPanel to use a newer version of Perl to no avail. Even 5.10 would be a big improvement. I loathe having to work under 5.8.8.

No matter how hysterical I get, my problems are not time sensitive. So, relax, have a cookie, and a very nice day!
