You should also check out scoop (http://scoop.kuro5hin.org/), the engine that runs Kuro5hin.org. It's also written for modperl, and IMHO has some extra community features that makes it better than slash for more democratic sites where there are no editors like on /. who decide what stories get posted. Oh, and it does have diaries. ;-) Does anyone know of a more portal oriented engine? in addition to discussions and articles, a calendar, object level access control, polls, approval based content management. A friend has to put together a community portal site for the university he works for, on biological terrorism, no less! So far, we have been unable to find anything in perl that provides the functionality needed. The ArsDigita code seems pretty good, but it's seems to be somewhat adrift and sloppy at this point. Zope provides lot of features, but seems to be a closed little world, ie. it's own db and it's own templating language. Anybody know of something in mod_perl with this out of the box functionality in addition to content management? -- aaron Zope has plugins to other db's, and there is lots of other apps which do what you want in php (like phpnuke), as for modperl, i don't think the people using modperl build onesizefitsall stuff as much as php people tend to do..

Re: Content management systems
Anybody know of something in mod_perl with this out of the box functionality in addition to content management? Metadot bills itself as a portal product. I've even installed it briefly in the past, and it seemed relatively easy to setup customize. http://www.metadot.com/ The developer site is at http://www.metadot.net/. wow...this looks great, anybody actually use it?

receiving XML by POST
Hello, i'm trying to figure out how to receive an xml message/file/stream(?) using POST, and how to be able to then send that to somewhere else (DBI). We're using MASON, don't know if that is information needed in this, but i saw something about MASON picking up all posts. Maarten
