After months of hacking away at my poor keyboard, I've finally released the first beta of extproc_perl 2.0! Also known affectionately as 1.99_04 -- I guess I like mod_perl's way of asymptotically approaching 2.0. ;-)
From the pending freshmeat announcement:
This is the first beta release of extproc_perl 2.0. Major changes include the addition of a configuration file, easier installation and relink procedures, definition of internal procedures in the "Perl" PL/SQL package, support for non-VARCHAR2 Oracle datatypes, support for "IN OUT" and "OUT" parameters, partitioned code parsing, user-defined destructors, and a major cleanup and optimization of all code. The website has also been updated to include a comprehensive user's guide.Check it out at http://www.smashing.org/extproc_perl. The examples and user's guide are a good place to start.
This is a spectacular thing to be releasing! I knew this was theoretically possible, but didn't know anyone was doing it.
I'd like to mention that your website has some odd issues with Gecko, at least in Mozilla Firebird.

Heh; thanks. For the software, more than for the web tweak.
