Hi all!

I'm sending it to the list because I didn't get any reply from Ralf.

Ah OK, I can do that, yes.

Well, at the moment, some ePerl pages work on http://thewml.org/ and some 
don't. The pages that don't probably have some bugs, but the web server does 
not report anything in the logs. The server-side ePerl was not updated in a 
long time, so it may be wise to convert it to HTML::Mason or whatever.

Like I said, I did not give up on http://thewml.org/ yet, but I still find it 
hard to digest, and in a transition period, after I started refactoring it. 
Plus, like my roadmap says:

http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/thewml/web-meta-lang/branches/maintenance/2.0.x/docs/WML-Roadmap-and-TODO-List.txt

It still needs a lot of revamp.

I'd rather set up an ad-hoc http://thewml.berlios.de/ now, rather than do all 
the work on http://thewml.org/ right now.
