So, jester and sri's article "30 lines of catalyst" is finally available on perl.com:

To complement it, we released Catalyst 5.23, which contains a few but crucial improvements. 1, the http daemon now properly handles HTTP/1.1 and 2, you can now have non-Catalyst modules living in your application namespace without Catalyst messing it up.


Catalyst on Windows XP (w/ Cygwin)

NOTE: Catalyst on Windows XP (w/ Cygwin) needs a patch and even then it didn't work for me... The details for patching are only available through a detailed Google search leading you to the catalyst mail-list:

http://lists.rawmode.org/pipermail/catalyst/2005-June/000504.html

I gave up and hope to see a new version with the patch implemented. I'll never get those hours of debugging back but I did learn a lot more about perl, cpan, modules and the conflicts between Cygwin and Active State perl environments. There is an Active State perl catalyst patch guideline as well out there.
