A perfectly reasonable request. As I've hinted, with great restraint, in: https://metacpan.org/module/CGI::Snapp#Why-did-you-fork-CGI::Application- I been struggling with Mark Stosberg for years about timely releases of patches (mostly to CGI::Session). I have written a great deal of code and docs, some of which he withheld from release for more than a year. I eventually decided for re-write this code so as to free myself from that constraint. In other words, I wished to guarantee current and future support - by doing it myself - for my current and future projects. That does not mean I have to use CGI::Snapp for everything. In fact, I'm very tempted to start learning Mojo, but I wanted a safe and reliable alternative to be in place before I adopted something new, since the latter course would necessarily involve a learning curve. The other factor you - and everyone - should take into account is that CGI::App etc appear to be longer supported, in that bug fixing has stopped. CGI::Snapp etc bugs (if any!) will be of great concern to me and will be fixed ASAP. For such software technology, it's actually nice to have a choice.
