  1. OpenPKG 1.0 Released

    Tech · Unix · · posted by michael · from the dependencies dept. · 222 comments
    Ralf S. Engelschall writes: "I'm proundly announcing today the release of OpenPKG 1.0, the world of cross-platform RPM-based Unix software packaging. A flexible and powerful software packaging facility, OpenPKG eases installation and administration of Unix software across several platforms. It primarily targets the Unix platforms FreeBSD, Linux and Solaris, but is portable across mostly all modern Unix flavors. OpenPKG was created in November 2000 and after over one year of development it is already a mature technology in production use. It is available as Open Source and is further maintained by both my development team at Cable & Wireless Germany and our contributors. For more details visit openpkg.org and ftp.openpkg.org."

  3. Embedded Perl Solutions As CGI Substitute?

    Ask · Perl · · posted by Cliff · from the primary-execution-realtime-language dept. · 8 comments
    broken77 asks: "At the company I'm working for now, we're starting a new project, and at the same time are looking to find some kind of "standard" method of making our CGI-like perl programs. CGI.pm and cgi-lib.pl have been used in the past, but we're investigating some kind of embedded perl solution similar to ASP or PHP. I should mention that Unix-ASP and PHP are not options (I don't really need to go into the reasons). Also, Perl is definitely the language we will be using. We're looking mainly at ePerl, HTML::Embperl and PerlMagic Lightning. Does anyone have experience with any or all of these? Are there some benchmarks I can find? Are there any products that you've found to be better than these three that I've listed?"
