Hi Anonymous,

By that logic, why would you even mention those other CGI::... modules?

Simply because they're not deprecated, and don't have substantial portions of their functionality declared unmaintained. I just mentioned the removal from the core to underline that.

And just in case it isn't clear yet, I have nothing against CGI (the protocol / environment), the point I was making is that CGI.pm (the module) shouldn't be recommended to newcomers or new developments, and that there are better alternatives.

they're just lesser imitations ... you should avoid railing against things

Right.

thats just trolling
