It's been a while since anyone called me a punk. It was probably 1977 and as I was listening to the Sex Pistols at the time the description was probably accurate.

I'll admit that it's been at least a couple of years since I looked at your scripts. I'll take another look just as soon as Extropia comes back up and I'll report back with my opinions. If you're interested, I'll be measuring them against the criteria that I list in my article Finding CGI Scripts.

I certainly can't claim to have inspired a thousand web developers, but I know I've saved hundreds of web sites from using Matt Wright's scripts by running the nms project. In my opinion this has also been worked on by "some of the best perl developers from around the world". I wonder if they were the same ones as worked on your project :)
