Re: suggestions for perl as web development language [EXT]

Just because the language lets you to relax doesn't mean you
shouldn't apply strict validation of all data being worked on :) I don't
care about it in a two line cron job but more critical components spend a
lot of time on data validation - I am pretty much working in paranoid mode.

If you use Moose you can automatically apply data type checking.
