Maybe you would like to port ezmlm-web to the Perl Catalyst MVC
framework http://www.catalystframework.org/.

I've managed to port some old CGI programs to Catalyst, and now they are
really fast, better organized (as Catalyst helps you organize your code
better), and I've had a really fun time, as the framework is really
good! There would be no problem in helping you out, also.

I've been looking at the ezmlm-web code, and it really looks as if it
was not all that dificult to restructure the code, and fit it into the
Catalyst Framework. I really would go for a new subscription interface,
in another language if wanted, but it would be a shame to leave all the
ezmlm-web code behind, because I think ezmlm-web does a good job
already, and a total rewrite is just asking for new bugs.
