CPAN & Version Numbers: Don't be afraid!

Way too often 'stable' versions of CPAN modules are just ... whatever version the module became stable. It's no big deal to many of us to install and use something that version 0.04 or similar. To those new to perl or the PHB crowd, this could be seen as insanity.

what does modern perl look like

There is a perception of perl being dead, old, hard to read, impossible to maintain, etc. What does modern perl look like? Let's dispel the myths

Getting windows nuances working with catalyst

DBIx::Class::EncodedColumn and a few of the Cache::* modules are having issues installing on windows. (from the RFC)

MojoMojo Themes

This is from the RFC: New to Catalyst Questions thread:

I know. I brute-forced the main catalystframework.org css into a MojoMojo theme to see how it would look. I'm not a web-designer, so don't expect wonders... You can see it here:

Is the Catalyst Wiki code in the svn repository or backed-up somewhere? I think it would be good to have a development version (with the current content snapshot) so I can work on a makeover.

We could write an article on theming MojoMojo, if in fact it's reasonable

Step by Step Howto

I'd love to see a step by step install of catalyst on centos from downloading, to a hello world to tying that into apache and production.

I know there are tons of docs, but this is what many people look for when learning about something new
