Thanks for the background Randy. I have seen ActiveState get a pretty major hammering in some quarters for their support of Perl , so it's interesting to get a more reaoned perspective. It's a real shame the mod_perl build can't be made hands-off, as it seems that would bring so many Apache::*

Do we know anyone at netcraft who can give us figures for AP2/MP2 commercial uptake? The main problem with netcraft and friends, is that most setups have ServerTokens off, or running modperl as a backend so it's impossible to know. -- __

Further to this, I went looking at the specific case of Apache-CGI-Builder. I was hoping to use the CGI::Builder framework, and was disappointed to find that the Apache handler i/f was not available. Sure enough, the ActiveState module status list- http://ppm.activestate.com/BuildStatus/5.8.h
