PXPerl may look abandoned, due to the lack of interest by the author (He wrote, IIRC, he found the hard work needed to get stuff done on Win32 compared to Linux, discouraging), but I think it'd be a shame if all the hard work he did just faded away. Perhaps somebody could take over, perhaps it could be absorbed in the wider framework of the newly emerging Win32 distros...

Anyway, PXPerl is only 1/2 year old, it's too early to call it "abandoned" just yet. IMHO.
