that's why I've suggested to send this to modperl list, where you have 
people with time on their hands.

ok, you got me, I've to setup the code for generating mod_perl 2.0 docs 
and I was postponing this trying to do some coding first, but I'll try 
to implement it now. Since I plan to move to use template toolkit, I'll 
create a components system for the site as well.

Since we have to login and update the checked out copy of 
perl.apache.org anyway, I see no reason why not to run a script that 
will run 'cvs up' and run ttpage to update all the components.

Any objections to this?

Once I'm done, I'll throw a few pages in for your observation and from 
there on we can start working on making a nice look-n-feel. Of course 
I'll take the work that you've done already. Can you please send me the 
pages (privately) you've done already?
