<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> How about AxKit?</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I'll start working on an AxKit presentation. Though I'm not sure I can be ready with it for the April meeting.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>The problem with AxKit is that while getting it up and running isn't a hurculean task. I find that truely understanding how it all fits together is. Or at least, I haven't yet dedicated the time to getting to that ah ha moment... I was kind of hoping to do mod_perl as a building block toward being prepared to do presentation on AxKit.</FONT></P>
<BR>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>> Another suggestion...Perl/XML.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> I've only used XML::Parser, XML::RSS and XML::DOM, but I know </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> there's a lot more out there. I just picked up the New Riders </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> _XML and Perl_ book and it looks promising (more so than the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> O'Reilly book).</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>What was lacking in the O'Reilly book? What is the best Perl XML book?</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Oh... and I need to plug an irritating reminder to post that Graphics Programming with Perl book review to the list ;) Which reminds me I've got a couple book reviews to post myself...</FONT></P>
