Re: Payment Providers
BODY { font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:12px; } 5. Established, tested cpan modules for dealing with them I only know of Business::PayPal::API in CPAN which seems to work ok. The downside is that its PayPal :) My initial inclinations were the big guns like Datacash and Paypoint, but of some concern was datacash's website being hosted on IIS, and the fact that neither of them have modules on cpan (and frankly, the perl examples for datacash were more than a little embarrassing for them). So, recommendations? Horror Stories? Legal guidance? --James I've not seen a good implementation/example in perl from any payment provider. And yes, the datacash examples are awful. Anywhere I've worked we've rolled our own. Since most providers use SOAP or key values via HTTPS it is not that much work to do a perl implementation. As for which provider I'd use I have no idea, I guess the one that gives you the best deal. Technically they all seem to have their good and bad points. Paul.
Maintainer needed for perlsphere.net
Hello, I no longer have the inclination to run perlsphere.net, an open Planet-style aggregator for Perl blogs. If you would be interested in taking it over, please mail me offlist. Its only requirement is having the Plagger set of modules installed. Earle -- Earle Martin | http://downlode.org/

The recommended ones are a far longer (and esoteric) list. See http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/MIYAGAWA/Plagger-0.7.17/META.yml I remember it giving me nightmares when I tried to package it for Fedora Centos. But it turns out that was because the standard Fedora packaging tools ignore META.yml and search the code for 'use' statements. Idiots. Dave...

Yeah, that's just the required modules. The recommended ones are a far longer (and esoteric) list. See http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/MIYAGAWA/Plagger-0.7.17/META.yml But it still has more chances to successfully install than yours :) http://cpandeps.cantrell.org.uk/?module=Plagger http://cpandeps.cantrell.org.uk/?module=Perlanet -- Tatsuhiko Miyagawa
