MOD_Perl Converter

Hi,

Sorry if this is a FAQ, but, is there any mod_cgi to mod_perl
converter available? I'm not even sure if such a converter would be
possible. However, even a partial convert will already help a great
deal.

For example, such a converter could scan a program and add code to it
to initialise variables before starting the original code. This will
prevent the problem with variables retaining their values from one
request to the next.

Best regards.

And to address the specific problem you mentioned about initializaing 
variables, look at Apache::PerlRun.
