Re: Multiple Service Handling (IKC and HTTP/JSONRPC)

No, it can be fine to combine services---even disparate ones---into  
one program, if that's the best solution to your problem.  Obviously  
the applicability is up to you or your systems designer.

For example, Bot::Pastebot (CPAN) is an IRC client and a pastebin web  
server in one program.
