Hi, This issue of a P2EE specification has come up before (and I participated in the discussion), but since it is off-topic for the mod_perl list, I would appreciate some referrals of where to go to discuss this. Last time this came up, I was referred to three different mailing lists (also, see http://lists.perl.org/). However, none of the lists were interested in the P2EE problem (including the PerlSDK list). If no one suggests an appropriate list, I propose starting a "p2ee" group on SourceForge. This gives us mailing lists and a CVS repository for the artifacts of the effort (which will mostly be specifications and documentation, with maybe some Bundle files). I would also submit the list information to "perl.org" for inclusion in the list of lists. Stephen
