By the way, we discussed several modules for retrying/attempting a 
repeated task at the last meeting.

My method is available at:

http://search.cpan.org/~tjc/Retry-0.10/
or
http://github.com/TJC/Retry

Mark Fowler's Attempt was another one mentioned.
Notably, his module is designed more to retry over and over quickly, 
whereas mine increases the delay between retries, and has a callback to 
report on failures as they happen, in case you need to provide feedback 
to the user, or record it for error logging.
