The Perl 5 Module List, v2.46
=============================
Today I posted a new module list to the newsgroups
comp.lang.perl.modules, comp.answers, and news.answers. The HTML
version of the list has been uploaded to CPAN as well:
http://www.perl.com/CPAN/modules/00modlist.long.html
As usual, comments, corrections and suggestions are more than
welcome. Please mail them to
[email protected]
I believe that I have taken into account all mails we have received
since the last posting. If this is not the case, please let us know. A
big Thank You to all contributors helping us to keep the document up
to date and apologies to all who didn't get responses as quick as they
should.
