Hmm, well CGI::Application is already on my list.

I intend to use HTML::Template rather than Template Toolkit - any thoughts?

I'll look into those DBI modules - I did wonder whether I should just carry on implementing DBI or whether there were useful modules that present a cleaner code-base for sql transactions (my reservations about such a module would be that it either makes too many assumptions about what you want to do, or ends up not really being much different from rolling your own sql).

BTW fixed typo - HTML::Template rather than HTML::Application iirc
