Brad, I don't want to depress you, but have a look at the web
programming section of CPAN at:
http://www.cpan.org/modules/00modlist.long.html#15)WorldWideWeb

I hate to say it, but you've got a long ways to go to catch up to
what's currently available for Perl.  That one section alone has
packages from at least 2 dozen contributors, most with multiple
offerings.  I want RPG to succeed as much as anyone else here, but
the fact is, this is what we're up against.
