I was wondering how hard it would be to put together a mini Application
server toolkit.
A pre-built apache with mod_perl, ssl, etc, template toolkit (or mason),
perl corba module for apache (assuming it doesn't already have one) kind
of like IBMs websphere but less massive and not proprietary. All the
necessary parts are there its just an issue of packaging and spinning it
to the punters.
I am fed up with seeing java/proprietary kudges when there are clean and
open ways to do the job better.
