Project Summary
Looking for a perl guru to help complete a browser based content 
management app for a printed catalog. Most of the work has been done 
but we need someone who can help us to finish it. The work left to be 
done deals with data validation, Perl scripts, db tables, storing data, 
data retrieval, forms, image upload, and some others. More detail will 
be provided at interview.

Existing site is Catalyst with a Postgres backend on an OSX Apache 
server. Portions of the project were done with JSON and DHTML but will 
not be a large part of the applicant's responsibility.
