Tim, 

here is a line for the Module List.

Hmm, I wonder if it's worth to write an HMTL converter for it...
Probably not :-)

In that case I suppose I can pull it off rtfm. But it would be nice to
have a master copy available by ftp/web.

Arguably that should be WWW::CGI, but let's leave that until at least
the protocols make sense.

WWW::
::HTTP           cdpO   Implement HyperText Transfer Protocol        WWWPERL
::URL            cdpf   Manipulate Uniform Resource Locators         WWWPERL
::Log            i      Parse Common Log File Format
::Robots         i      Parse /robots.txt file

WWWPERL  "libwww-perl discussion list" <libwww-perl@ics.UCI.EDU>

Everyone OK with that? If so we can get back to talking design :-)

Cheers,
