Hello, world! This is Simon Cozens, www.perl.com managing editor,
bringing you the latest goings on from the world of Perl and our
own site.

* Perl at large.

Last week's problems with SOAP::Lite have been cured by the latest
release, 0.55. If you're running anything less, you need to upgrade.
In other SOAP news, Google have released an API to their search
engine.  You need to register to get a key for non-commercial use.

Speaking of new releases, Parrot 0.0.5 is out. This fixes a
shedload of bugs in the garbage collection code, and much
improved aggregate support, as well as the usual plethora of
enhancements.

And finally, a Unix desktop environment written in Perl? Oh yes.

* What's new on www.perl.com?

This week's article is another in our series from Barrie Slaymaker
on using the AxKit XML application server. This time, we look at
how we can extend AxKit using our own XML tags backed up with
logic in Perl. XSP (Extensible Server Pages) is a way of having
XML tags fire off procedures in Perl and other languages, and
insert the results into the XML document. Barrie teaches us how
to write our own tag libraries (taglibs) in Perl and have AxKit
process them into our output.

Enjoy!

CPAN PLUS
For many years the CPAN.pm module has helped people install Perl
modules. But it's also been clunky, fragile and amazingly difficult
to use programmatically. Jos Boumans introduces CPANPLUS, his
project to change all that.
