mailing list highlights
o A good discussion of exception handling appeared on the list
this week, ranging from Perl's eval() syntax to Error.pm to
Java-like exception handling [8]
o The discussion again surfaced about whether you can use
mod_perl to alter the Server response header. The short answer
is that you can't without changing the Apache source code or
writing your own version of send_http_header. That is, unless
you use XS, but Matt isn't sharing until the next release of
AxKit :) [9]
