Hi Jim & all,

I would love to see wxPerl spring back to life again. I think the =
problem essentially is that it hasn't built successfully against the =
latest wxWidgets for several years now. I've often wondered whether it =
would be worth designing a "lite" version of wxPerl to reduce the =
maintenance and documentation effort.

Good to see quite a few programmers respond to your post :)

Cheers - Ron
