Well, again, I disagree with that. This came up just a few days ago here, and the author of "Learning Perl" did too, so I'm not alone. It depends on what your doing and how you're doing it. I went over the Dancer tutorials last week and found them to be kind of sparse. Web::Simple is even more so. I'm not saying these are not good alternatives to using CGI.pm, but I strongly disagree that using CGI.pm is a " terrible idea". I want to understand why Mark thinks he needs mod_perl. If it's just because he wants to speed up his app (soup up the engine) there might be things he can do that don't require rewriting a lot of code, or spending a lot of time learning a lot of new ways of doing things.
