Hi Chris,

One approach would be to modify your applications so they use some kind of
abstraction layer, like Plack, that runs on top of both CGI and mod_perl.
 There's more on Plack here: http://plackperl.org/

Another option, since you used Registry, would be to change your use of
Apache::Request to something like CGI.pm which works on both.  You may not
need to change much else.
