My co-workers and I wish to provide access to our billing application via a set of carfully constructed XML command DTDs.

I've looked at a few packages on CPAN, and I've thought about a roll-your-own parser... It would use XML::Parser obviously, but felt like a traditional CGI rather than a mod_perl solution, which is dissapointing.

Well, currently the roll-your-own solution seems like it's the way to go. I want for these xml command documents to be gpg signed messages. I'm frustrated though, because I feel like there's probably a bunch of CPAN stuff out there, that already does what want... if only I could find it.

I looked at AxKit, it seems to be what I want, if only I could wrap my mind around it... I'm not very good with mod_perl yet though.

What is the best way to setup an xml command server that does gpg sigs and returns a response (in the form of another xml document)?
