Morning all,

I'm about to start work at a new place and they mentioned in the interview that they use Apache::Pagekit for a lot of their applications. As far as I can see Apache::PageKit is a web applications framework that is based on mod_perl - it seems to be aimed at trying to seperate out static and dynamic content on websites (so that designers and developers don't mess with each others code).

I've used other such systems in the past (like Apache::ASP - my what a fresh hell that experience that was) with differing success. So has anyone out there used Apache::Pagekit? Can they recommend it / condemn it? Has anyone else seen any decent Open Source alternatives (I've had a play with various closed systems - like Vignette for example - and I think the cost prohibits them for most sites I'd be working on)?

Thanks in advance.......
