Yes, and I'm glad some other Perl solutions make an effort to work in a lightweight environment. (I know Mark Stosberg has long been the champion of plain CGI users for example). I'm just not interested in "competing" in this space myself. I'd rather cater to the power users that have a reasonably robust hosting solution and don't mind installing a few dependencies. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ _______________________________________________ Mason-users mailing list Mason-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mason-users
