ANNOUNCEMENT: Apache::PageKit 0.91

There is a new version of PageKit available for download from CPAN.  For
more information, please go to

http://search.cpan.org/search?dist=Apache-PageKit

There has been a major API cleanup and rewrite of code base that makes it
faster and much easier to set up and use.  PageKit is still in alpha
stage, but it should move into beta as the version approaches 1.0.  

Description
-----------
        PageKit is a web applications framework that is based on mod_perl.
        This framework is distinguished from others such as Embperl and Mason
        by providing a clear separation of programming, content and
        presentation.

        It does this by implementing a Model/View/Content/Controller paradigm:
                - Model is user supplied Perl classes
                - View is set of HTML::Templates
                - Content is set of XML Files
                - Controller is PageKit

        This allows your programmers, designers and content editors to work
        independently with clean well-defined interfaces.

        PageKit provides the following features:
                - Component-based architecture
                - Language Localization
                - Session Management
                - Input Validation
                - Sticky HTML Forms
                - Authentication
                - Co-branding
                - Automatic Dispatching of URIs
                - Easy Error Handling
