in thread Output should have multiple segments

Mason is very flexible, the problem is that it is hard to make it follow a consistent structure. Anything you can do in Perl you can do in Mason, and that is the problem. A web page is about presentation. Once you start putting other stuff, like business logic, you are going to make it harder for to maintain and decrease portability with other applications. That is why I say avoid Mason, it is too easy to be lazy!

    Hehe, that's playing against the "rules", because if you s/Mason/Perl/ in this sentence you will still have a true statement, this being one of the most controversial Perl feature (advocacy wise, at least) ;-)

    Of course, this is just a quick note, it's not my intention to take sides in a possible "mine rocks, yours sucks" flame :))
